    D       A/C#     G/B
She told me that she loved me
  G/B
I heard the sirens sing
    D        D/C#    G/B     D/A
Her voice is soft as dead of night
  Em
A pillow for a king

    D       A/C#  G/B
She tangled me in starlight
  G/B
I dangled in each beam
D       D/C#    G6/B     G6/A
 Now I'm just a dreamer
 Em             Bm
Emerging from a dream

   D        A/C#    G/B
He promised he'd be faithful
G/B
That's what she was told
  D          D/C#  G/B     D/A
A ring would guarantee the words
  Em
A promise forged in gold

    D       A/C#    G/B
Her dress a silk creation
    G/B
Her train a mile of cream
D         D/C#   G6/B     G6/A
Now she's just a dreamer
 Em             Bm
Emerging from a dream

   D        A/C#   G/B
She tangled in the starlight
    G/B
She dangled in each beam
D         D/C#   G6/B     G6/A
Now she's just a dreamer
 Em             Bm
Emerging from a dream

A                                   G
Where are your dreams – did they all fade away?
G(maj7)       F#m
  Lost in the cold light of day
A                                   G
Where are your dreams – did they all fade away?
G(maj7)       F#m
  Lost in the cold light of day
A                                   G
Where are your dreams – did they all fade away?
G(maj7)       F#m
  Lost in the cold light of day
A [break]
Where are your dreams?

D      A/C#    G/B
No–one sits in judgement
     G/B
It's too well worn a theme
D      D/C#      G/B     D/A
No–one spots the moment
         Em
When the song becomes a scream

   D      A/C#   G/B
We tangle in the starlight
   G/B
We dangle in each beam
D      D/C#     G6/B     G6/A
Then become the dreamer
Em             Bm
Emerging from a dream

   D      A/C#   G/B
We tangle in the starlight
   G/B
We dangle in each beam
D      D/C#     G6/B     G6/A
Then become the dreamer
Em             Bm
Emerging from a dream
