When I lay down to sleep, I feel the world spin

Chorus #2 (3/4)
D5 A5 E5 F#5
'cause when I lay down to sleep, I have the same dream
B5 A5 E5 D5
Of a world-famous actress in a pink limousine
D5 A5 E5 F#5
And she flies through the sky in that pink Cadillac
B5 A5 E5 D5
While the boys of the press, we drink vodka in back
D5 A5 E5 F#5
And she tells us our fortune by crumbling leaves
B5 A5 E5 D5
And she teaches us card tricks, the jack makes us weak
D5 A5 E5 F#5 B5 A5
She divines water by dancing a jig for the boys of the press
E5 F#5
She will whistle a pitch
