The D to D6 might not be necessary, but if you listen closely you can hear him subtly switch between the two.

[Intro]
D D6
[Verse]
D6 D
I see gold in the air and promise in the streams
G D D6
I see love in the hearts, futures in our dreams
D D6 D D6
It’s a tunnel kind of vision like alcohols involved
G D D6
And I stray like a hound dog but a’ma come back when she calls
A7 D D6
When she calls I’ll come to her,
A7 D D6
Oh when she calls I’ll come to her
[Chorus]
F#m
I had a dream
D
I had a dream last night
F#m D
Shakin’ like a soldier in my shoes
F#m
I had a dream
D
You were a laser light
F#m Em
Burning down the city in my blues
D F#m
I owe it all to you
Em D F#m
I owe it all to you ( I Do )
Em D D6 D D6
I owe it all to you
[Verse]
D6 D
She got ash on her dress and the devil in her eyes
G D D6
Where he sticks his disposition and a temper just like mine
D D6 D D6
It’s a tunnel kind of vision like alcohols involved
G D D6
And I stray like a hound dog but a’ma come back when she calls
A7 D D6
When she calls I’ll come to her,
A7 D D6
Oh when she calls I’ll come to her,
A7 D D6
When she calls I’ll come to her
A7 D D6
Oh when she calls I’ll come to her
[Chorus]
