SWEET DREAMS (Don Gibson)
Performed by Emmylou Harris (from the album Elite Hotel); Capo on 1st fret

A       B7       E    E7
Sweet dreams of you
        A     B7       E      E7
Every night   I go   through
A               D           A              F#m
Why can't I forget you and start my life anew
    A               E  E7             A   D  A  E E7
Instead of having sweet dreams about you

You don't love me, it's plain
I should have known you'll never wear my ring
I know I should hate you the whole night through
Instead of having sweet dreams about you

Sweet dreams of you
Things I know can't come true
Why can't I forget the past, start loving someone new
Instead of having sweet dreams about you

Performed by Elvis Costello (from the album Almost Blue)

You don't love me, it's plain
                D    E7            A    A7
I should have known you'd never share my name
