Once

up-

on

a

mid-

FBm

B

night

dear-

ie,

I

woke__

E

A

with

some-

thing

in

my

head.

FBm

B

I

E

A

could-

n't

es-

cape__

the

mem-

FBm

B

o-

ry__

of

a

phone__

E

A

call

and

of__

what

you

FBm

B

said.__

Like

a

E

A

game

show

con-

test-

ant

with

a

FBm

B

part_

ing

gift__

I

could

not__

E

A

be-

lieve__

my__

eyes__

FBm

B

when

I

saw

E

A

through

the

voice__

of

a

trust-

FBm

B

ed

friend__

who

needs

to

E

A

hu-

mor

me

and__

tell

me

FBm

B

lies.__

Yeah,

hu-

E

A

mor

me

and__

tell

me

FBm

B

lies.

And

E

A

I'll

lie

too,

and

say

I__

FBm

B

don't

mind.__

And

E

A

as

we

seek,___

so

shall__

FBm

B

we

find.__

And

E

A

when

you're

feel-

ing

o-

pen

I'll

still__

FBm

B

be

here,__

but

E

A

not

with-

out

a

cer-

tain

de-

gree__

FBm

B

of

fear__

of__

E

A

what

will

be__

with

FBm

B

you

and

me.__

I

still__

E

A

can

see__

things,

hope-

E

A

shake

me

and__

my

co-

FBm

B

fi-

dence__

'bout

a

E

A

great

man-

y

things,__

FBm

B

but

I've

been__

E

A

there;__

I

can

see__

FBm

B

it

cow-

er

like

a

nerv-

E

A

ous

ma-

gi-

cian

waiting

in

the

FBm

B

wings.__

Or

a

bad__

E

A

play__

where

the

he-

FBm

B

roes

are

right__

and

E

A

no-

bod-

y

thinks

or

ex-

pects__

FBm

B

too__

much,

and

E

A

Hol-

ly-

wood's

call-

ing

for

the

FBm

B

mov-

ie

rights,__

sing-

ing

"Hey__

E

A

babe,

let's

keep

in

FBm

B

touch.__

Hey

ba-

E

A

by,

let's

keep

in

FBm

B

touch."

But

I

want

E

A

more

than

a

touch;

I

want

you__

FBm

B

to

reach

me

and

E

A

show

me

all

the

things

no

one

else__

FBm

B

can

see,__

so

E

A

what__

you

feel__

be-

comes

mine__

FBm

B

as

well.__

And

E

A

soon,

if

we're

luck-

y,

we'd

be

un-

FBm

B

a-

ble

to

tell

what's__

E

A

yours

and

mine.__

The

FBm

B

fish-

ing's

fine,__

and

it

does-

E

A

n't

have

to

rhyme,__

so

don't

you

E

A

ba,

dear,__

this

is

FBm

B

the

pi-

lot

speak-

ing

and

I've__

E

A

got__

some

news

for

you.__

FBm

B

It

seem

my

E

A

ship

still

stands

no

mat-

ter

FBm

B

what

you

drop,

and

there

ain't

a

E

A

whole

lot

that

you

can

do.

FBm

B

Oh

sure,

the

E

A

banner

my

be

torn

and

the

wind's

FBm

B

got-

ten

cold-

er.

E

A

Per-

haps

I've

grown

a

lit-

tle

FBm

B

cyn-

i-

cal.__

But

I

know__

E

A

no

mat-

ter

what_

the

wait-

FBm

B

ress

brings,

I

shall

drink__

E

A

it

and

al-

ways

be

FBm

B

full.__

Yeah,

I

will

E

A

drink__

it

and

al-

ways

be

FBm

B

full.

Oh,__

E

A

I

like

cof-

fee

and

I__

FBm

B

like

tea.__

But

to

E

A

be

a-

ble

to

en-

ter

a

fi-

FBm

B

nal

plea__

I

E

A

still

got__

this

dream

that

you

just__

FBm

B

can't

shake.__

I

E

A

love

you

to

the

point

you

can

no-

FBm

B

long-

er

take,

Well,

all

right,

E

A

o-

kay,

so

FBm

B

be

that

way

I

E

A

hope

and

pray

that

there's

some-
