Intro (x2): D  A  Em  G  D  A  C  G

Verse 1:
D                  A              C
 Splashdown in the silver screen
                 G
Into a deep dram-atic scene
D                   A
 I swim through the theatre
   C             G 
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer!
D                   A             C
 Like a kite in the bright midday
                G
Wonder stole my breath away
D              A
Shy sonata for Mercury
    C                G
The stars always sing so pretty

Chorus:
A                 Bm           G
 This picnic will soon depart
               D                 
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
A                   Bm          
 I'll miss you with all my heart
    G            D     
But I'd rather be alone
A                  Bm            G
 'Cause I couldn't live without
                 D                  
The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
A                 Bm
 So I'll drag the anchor up
    G                    A                         D  A  Em
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!
G                         D  A  C  G 
Dreams don't turn to dust


Verse 2 (as verse 1):
I made for the countryside
And my eyes never grew so wide
Apple, raspberry, river blue
I don't wanna leave without you
In the sound I'll gladly drown
Into the emerald underground
And I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see
Surrounded by all this beauty


Chorus:
A                 Bm           G
 This picnic will soon depart
               D                 
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
A                   Bm          
 I'll miss you with all my heart
    G            D     
But I'd rather be alone
A                  Bm            G
 'Cause I couldn't live without
                 D                  
The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
A                 Bm
 So I'll drag the anchor up
    G                    A                         
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

Em Bm A                         
        I'm sad to see you go
Em Bm     D              A
      I'd rather be alone 


Bridge:
     Em               Bm         A
When tiger eyes begin making you blush!
     Em                       Bm              
When diamonds boast that they can't be crushed
G                 A
Let 'em go 'cause dreams don't turn to dust!

Dreams don't turn to dust
D  A     C                  G                         D
     And rest assured cause dreams don't turn to dust!
