C  
Well it started out just like a dream  
    F 
and like a dream I knew that   
        G                 C 
what we had would have to end.  
                    F 
I was looking for a night time lover  
      G                      C 
(and) you were looking for a friend.

Am                        Em 
Someone to be there after all your night time lovers 
    F                  G 
had gone to where they came. 
Am                      D 
Someone who knew the way and help to play  
              G  
your day time games. 
F       N.C.           Am            G 
      It's not the same. 
 
 
       C                               
Well I started out pretending  
         F 
that I'd come to mean enough to you 
   G                C 
to make you want to change. 
                            F 
Then I came to realise that there was just too much of you  
    G          C 
you had to rearrange 
 
 
Am                               Em 
And I couldn't bear to wait around for all your 
                     F                G 
night time lovers to go to where they came 
Am 
and then it came to hurt too much to me 
        D                  G 
to help to play your day time games 
 

F       N.C.          Am            G 
        No one's to blame 
 
 
      C  
Well it started out just like a dream  
    F 
and like a dream I knew that   
        G                 C 
what we had would have to end.  
                    F
