Intro  A

A                                  A4                   A   
There?s something about you that reminds me of all those times
     D                                             A                    E   
When I wasn?t sorry, when I wasn?t blue the cherry moon it shone down on us
F#m         A            E        F#m
Under the stars shining down everyone for you
            A                      G               
If I could count them all I would circle the moon
     D                                         
And count ?em back to nothing till I got to you

Bm                              A G
Something in you dies when it?s over
Bm               A   G
Everybody cries sometimes
    Bm                                    A  G
If loving you?s a dream that?s not worth having
     A     A9        A   A9                    
Then why do I dream of you

A                                A4                          A
I used to be the house that you lived in down on Meadowlake Street
D                                           A                     E
When you moved they cut down the maple tree I carved your name into
     F#m          A                           E               
The tree became a boat, I christened it your name
              F#m                            A
And when the water turned to salt from your tears 
                         G
It hit the bottom of the ocean where I go 
     D9
When I hear your name and I sink like a stone

Bm                              A G
Something in you dies when it?s over
Bm               A   G
Everybody cries sometimes
    Bm                                    A  G
If loving you?s a dream that?s not worth having
     A/D   A9/D      A/D   A9/D
Then why do I dream of you

A                          A4
I feel like a dream that?s not worth having
        A                 A4
Like a nervous joke ain?t nobody laughing
      D9                              
Like somebody with nothing ?cause they don?t know what they?re wanting
                       
Tiny like the sand in the cracks of the driftwood
 A                           A4
Washed up on the shore of an ocean of you
A                A4
Boats out on the horizon
D9
Made of the maple tree where I used to lie down
                        
On Meadowlake street counting the stars 
 A       A4  A  A4  D9           A        A4  A  A4   D9
You and I                you and I...   you and I                you and I..

Bm                              A G
Something in you dies when it?s over
Bm               A   G
Everybody cries sometimes
    Bm                                    A G
If loving you?s a dream that?s not worth having
     A/D   A9/D     A/D  A9/D  A/D  A9/D     A/D  A9/D
Then why do I dream of you,         why do I dream of you
A/D   A9/D     A/D  A9/D   A/D   A9/D     A/D  A9/D
Why do I dream of you,           why do I dream of you
