VERSE
 C5                A5            E5           F5                 G5
Silly things like diamond rings fall between other things like you and I

   C5              A5                 E5          F5              G5
We used to have a coffee pot we used it a lot to sit around and talk about 

C5             A5                    E5              F5                  G5
everything we always want but we'll never get but a dreamer is still a dreamer

         C5                     A5            
til you wake them up (...) and sit them down 

    E5                  F5                 G5
and explain to them The sky is up and the earth is down

        C5                 A5                              E5
amongst other things like human beings they really aren't what they seem

         F5              G5
they'll lie to you and steal 


CHORUS
         D5                    G5
to get ahead of you and I'm afraid it't true
          F5                                 G5
when the world comes crashing down what are they to do?
              D5                    G5
And I'm not blaming you for being naive
     F5                                 G5                F5     
but now just close your eyes and start dreaming dreaming dreaming dreaming


VERSE
[ C5 - A5 - E5 - F5 - G5 ]

About candlelight forget about stupid fights
And it's funny to me I can't remember a single thing
that we fought about now that I'm alone but I guess that's how it goes
but I do remember every time that you kissed my neck oh I loved that the best
won't be getting none of those now that I'm an L.A. queen and away from you
but darling remember please that people lie and cheat and steal


CHORUS
[ D5 - G5 - F5 - G5 - D5 - G5 - F5 - G5 - F5 ]

to get ahead of you
And I'm afraid it's true
when the world comes crashing down what are they to do?
And I'm not blaming you for being naive
but now just close your eyes and start dreaming
dreaming dreaming dreaming


(Instrumental part)
[ C5 - A5 - E5 - F5 - G5 x2]


C5                      A5
Darling come get your coffee pot
          E5
cause it hasn't been used
      F5  G5         C5
since I last used you
