Dreams
by Sebadoh, from the album Bakesale
tuning:  all strings 1/2 step down (Eb Ab Db Gb Bb Eb)
chords and lyrics transcribed by John Spencer

(If anyone can hear more of what Lou is singing, please
post or mail--my lyrics are almost guesswork.  The song is
basically 4 chords but I play them at different positions
to follow the strings and voice.  The partial C in the
verse is my approximation to what's being played on bass
and guitar, see if it works for you.)

C (x32010@1)             E (022100@1) In my dreams
       C (x32010@1)            E (022100@1) I react as my true self
   C (x32010@1)              E (022100@1) And I learn from many (?)
   C (x32010@1)           E (022100@1) Twisted moral planes (?)

        C (x32010@1) It's really circumstance
D (xx0232@1)                               B (x2444x@1) Each night I dance with prime illusions (?)
      C (x32010@1) In pornographic scenes
D (xx0232@1)                              B (x2444x@1) That always start as they are ending

(play intro riff twice)

(verse chords)
  In my dreams
  I walk with my true friends
  We discover secrets
  We run through our lies (?)

(chorus chords)
  Everything is twisted like abyss (?)
  To the past and distant future
  Unprepared for some big show (?)
  I try to arrive but I move too slow (?)

C(III) (x1333x@3)                        D(V) (x1333x@5) Something's wrong and someone died (?)
                    B(VII) (133211@7) Then I open up my eyes
  C(VIII) (133211@8)                     D(V) (x1333x@5) Something's wrong and someone died
                    E(VII)
  Then I open up my eyes
