Sweet Dream

[Intro]
C  Am  Dm  G
 
 
[Verse 1]
   C                    Am
4:55, everybody else is snorin'
         Dm                        G
My heavy eyes, I can never seem to close 'em
           C                                   Am
My running mind just can't catch you when it's goin'
              Dm                          G
Is it late at night or is it early in the mornin'?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]
        C                               Am
Only so many sheep a girl can count, patchouli candles burnin' out
  Dm                              G
I try to meditate it all away but damn, it is too quiet now
C                                Am
Daylight helps distract my head, monsters hide under my bed
     Dm                                       G
They bother me with all kinds of things like "where do I go when I'm dead?"
 
 
[Chorus 1]
      C                     Am
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream?
Dm                       G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em                          Am
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
      Dm               G               N.C.
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
 
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
 
 
[Verse 2]
N.C.                            Am
6:58, sun's peakin' through the curtains
         Dm                           G
I drift away, suddenly the wheels are turnin'
                C                             Am
Songs are in my head, scary thoughts begin to worsen
               Dm                       G
Once I'm wide awake, it's too hard to reverse it
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
         C                                    Am
Chirpin' birds are flying 'round my house, patchouli candles burnin' out
  Dm                              G
I try to meditate it all away but damn, it is too quiet now
C                                Am
Daylight helps distract my head, monsters hide under my bed
     Dm                                      G
They bother me with all kinds of things like that one stupid thing I said
 
 
[Chorus 2]
      C                     Am
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream?
Dm                       G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em                          Am
Life is not so bad when I'm sleeping
      Dm               G               N.C.
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a
 
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
 
 
[Bridge]
C       Am      Dm    G
Sandman can you visit me?
C     Am      Dm      G
All I want is a sweet dream
 
 
[Verse 3]
   C                     Am
8:31, I'm slurrin' every word now
            Dm                            G
I pray this cold coffee helps me with the rebound
              C                        Am
How does everybody I know, know how to sleep sound?
                 Dm                     G       N.C.
When we're all a mess, I guess the only way out is a
 
 
[Outro]
C       Am                        Dm
  Sweet dream (sweet dream, sweet dream)
           G                     C
Is a sweet dream (ah-ah ah-ah ah-ahhh-ah)
      Am                        Dm
Sweet dream (oh yea-eh-eh-eh eh-yeah)
           G
Is a sweet dream (yea-eh-eh)
C  Am  Dm  G
