Capo 1

C5   332010

This song is quite simple and she plays it with a walking bass and adds
some bass runs here and there. The bass note is picked on count one and three
and on count two and four is a down- and upstroke. I am not sure about every-
thing as I had to tab it by ear only.

Intro       C5 C5 C5
  
Verse 1     C5       C5        C5
              I had a dream last night
                E5             E5
            The worst in many years
                   D5            D5
            Had me biting on my pillow
                   G5            G5
            Had me waking up in tears
                C5             C5
            I was knocking on a door
                  C5              C5
            I?d been knocking all my life
              E5                    D5            G5        G5  G5  G5
            Expecting great things on the other side

Biss                     C5    C5             C5   C5
            On the other side      On the other side
              E5                    D5            E5     E5  E5  E5
            Expecting great things on the other side

Verse 2                   C5     C5
              There was a beam of light
              E5                   E5
            I sensed the time was near
               D5                D5
            I was getting all excited
                   G5                 G5
            Saw my future bright and clear
                C5             C5
            The lock gave out a roar
                    C5            C5
            And the door slid open wide
                  E5                D5              G5     G5  G5  G5
            I was free to walk out on the other side

Biss                     C5   C5            C5   C5 
            On the other side      On the other side
                    E5                D5             E5    E5  E5  E5
            Finally free to walk out on the other side

Verse 3                        C5            C5
               That?s when the dream got frightening
                  E5             E5
            I was not at all prepared
                    D5               D5
            For the empty hall that met me
                       G5                G5
            And the truth that lived in there
                  C5           C5
            The castle and the king
                       C5          C5
            And the diamonds in the sky
                 E5             D5                 G5     G5  G5  G5
            Were nowhere to be seen on the other side

Biss                   C5   C5            C5   C5
            On the other side    On the other side
                      E5              D5            G5    G5  G5  G5 
            No, there were no lights on the other side
                         C5   C5            C5   C5
            On the other side    On the other side
                      E5               D5            E5     E5  E5  E5
            Yeah, the lights were off on the other side

Verse 4                 C5      C5
            Now, if the dream is right
              E5                  E5
            And if I?m thinking clear
              D5                     D5              G5            G5
            I guess I should be thankful to have woken up right here
                C5               C5       C5        C5
            And not half-way up a ladder into an empty sky
                   E5          D5      C5              C5   C5 C5 
            Not looking for a better place to live my life
                  E5                        D5               G5      G5  G5  G5
            No, I think I?ll just stay and live it on this side 

Biss              C5   C5       C5   C5
            On this side    On this side
                      E5                D5            G5
            I?ll just stay and live my life on this side
