C G Bm
you and your big dreams
Em

C
in my big dreams
G Bm
and you tell me that it's over
Em C
wake up lying in a patch of four leaf clovers
G Bm
and your restless, and I'm naked
Em

C G

Bm Em

C
I didn't think so
G Bm
and you don't wanna be here in the future
Em C
so you say the present's just a pleasant interruption to the past
G Bm Em C
and you don't wanna look much closer
G Bm Em C
cause your afraid to find out all this hope you had sent into the sky by now had
