====== And I Have Seen The World Of Dreams ======

||:

And [E]I have seen the [Bm]world of dreams, and,
fresh-[D]flown through the trees then dropped [A]off at the [E]curb 
a[E]live, have seen the [Bm]world awake,
and [D]I don't know which I de[E]serve. [A]

?So [E]when sleep [Bm]nightly comes to me,
?with [D]all of these warm blankets [E]piled on my [A]back,
?I'll [E]hike to see the [Bm]church of dreams, 
?where [D]all of the shutters [E]are painted [A]black.

>And it [A]seems like that's [E]real until the [A]time I a[E]wake,
>and at [Bm]midnight the moonlight re[D]flects as the [E]lake 
>is [A]shining at [E]me, until night [D]takes it a[E]way.
>There's one [Bm]world in the distance, one [D]world in the [E]way, 
>and [A]not one can [E]stay.

>[D] [A] [E] [comment=(repeat)]
>[E]

?[E]I have seen the [Bm]world of dreams,
?carved [D]grainless and clean with a [A]sweep of one [E]hand, 
?and [E]have been happy [Bm]with the leaves 
?on [D]my body when laid under [E]land. [A]

?So [E]when sleep finally [Bm]comes to me -
?because it [D]comes for the sleek like it [E]comes for the [A]lame -
?I'll [E]sink beneath a [Bm]weight of dreams
?so [D]full and complete that I'm [E]pushed from my [A]name.

?>And it [A]seems like that's [E]real until [A]I fall a[E]sleep,
?>and then we [Bm]load up the car and drive [D]far to some [E]street
?>where a [A]new life a[E]waits, until day [D]takes it a[E]way.
?>There's one [Bm]world in the distance, one [D]world in the [E]way,
?>and [A]not one can [E]stay.
