Verse 1:
G                                                 Em    D
If you try to catch me, you'll be the first to lose
G                                                 Em    D
Freedom can be lonely, loneliness makes me think
G                                                 Em    D
Still I'd rather (be on) my own, then put into a cage 
       G                                      Em    D
So if you try to catch me, I'm already far away...
         G
I'm far away, I'm far away..


Chorus:
C                G                        C                D
I am a dream you cannot catch, I am your dream I can never be
         C                      G              C                       D
We fade away when ladybirds get paid, we fade away when ladybirds turn gray


Verse 2:
         G                                    Em    D
Not even you can bring life back from death twice
     G                                           Em   D 
My eyes are tired of trying to stay dry on rainy days
     G                                           Em   D 
I can't read your mind, even less can you read mine
     G 
Can you read mine...Can you read mine?


Chorus:
C                G                        C                D
I am a dream you cannot catch, I am your dream I can never be
         C                      G              C                       D
We fade away when ladybirds get paid, we fade away when ladybirds turn gray


Verse 3:
     G                                         
The freckles on the lips seem too much too resist
          Em              D
wondering why they were stuck on my mind
             G
I rubbed and scraped day after day just to get them away
             Em             D          
it struck me down, now I don't know why

G
my lips are marked with freckles all over
   Em
my lips are marked with freckles all over...All over


Chorus (2x):
C                G                        C                D
I am a dream you cannot catch, I am your dream I can never be
         C                      G              C                       D
We fade away when ladybirds get pale, we fade away when ladybirds turn gray
