Chords by patchcloak, 9/30/15
** Notes:
** - The chords for the first verse follow the intro vamp,
** so they are slightly different from the other verses.
** In general, think of C like a pickup into the next chord.
**
** - I've tried to line up the starts of line breaks with
** the starts of measures where it's useful, and otherwise
** just to place the chord markers as exactly on the words
** as possible. It sometimes makes the lines flow strangely,
** but it makes the chord changes easier to parse when
** multiple vocal parts are overlapping, like in the Bridge.
Vocal Intro (in 6/8, no backup)
I have the dream, always the same,
I was in white and falling,
Pretty red rose, pinned to my clothes,
I had the dream as always;

Dm C
There's nothing in the sky above me,

And I'm losing it all to this feeling baby,
