Intro: G D C 

( D G C )
 Staring out of his window as the world rushes by 

 Arthur Robinson closes the glass and replies, 

 'I dream of ballerinas and I don't know why? 

 But I see Cadillac's sailing.
 
 I was born on the shores of the Chesapeake Bay 

 Maryland and Virginia have faded away 

 And I keep thinking tomorrow is coming today 

 So I am endlessly waiting 

 chorus: 
G D C 


 and the comet is coming between 

 Me and the girl who could make it all clean 

 Out there in the shadow of the modern machine 

 walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream 

 verse 
D G C 


 Carrie's down in her basement all toe shoes and twinned 

 With the girl in the mirror who spins when she spins, 

 From where you think you will end up to the state that you?re in 

 Your reflection approaches and recedes again. Yeah
 
 chorus:  
G D C 


 And the comet is coming between 

 Me and the girl who could make it all clean 

 Out in the shadow of the modern machines 

 Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream 


 G D C 
 verse: 
D G C 


 I had a dream of a black car that shimmers and drives 

 Down the length of the evening to the carnival?s side 

 In a house where regret is a carousel ride 

 We are spinning and spinning and spinning
 
 There?s a hole in the ceiling down through which I fell 

 There?s a girl in the basement coming out of her shell 

 And there are people who will say they knew me so well 

 I may not go to heaven.. 

 I hope that you go to hell!
 
 chorus 
G D C
 

 The comet is coming between 

 Me and the girl who could make it all clean 

 out there in the shadow of a modern machine 

 Walks St. Robinson in his Cadillac dream
 
 outro 
G D C
 

 In his dream 

 St. Robinson in his dream. 

 Some people are never quite what they seem 

 Come on baby come on baby 

 Lets just Get into my car and drive.
