VERSE 1
[G]..Well, I [|][D]dreamed I saw the knights in [|][G]armour coming, Sayin' [|][D]something about a [|][G]queen
There were [|][D]peasants singin' and [|][A]drummers drummin' And the [|][G]archer split the [|][A]tree
There was a [|][Bm]fanfare blowin' [|][Csus2]to the sun that was [|][G]floating on the [|][C]breeze [|][C][|]
[D]Look at Mother Nature [|][A]on the run In the [|][C]nineteen seven[|][G]ties [|]

VERSE 2
[G]..I was [|][D]lying in a burned out [|][G]basement, With a [|][D]full moon in my [|][G]eye
I was [|][D]hoping for [|][A]replacement When the [|][G]sun burst through the [|][A]sky
There was a [|][Bm]band playing [|][C]in my head And I [|][G]felt like getting [|][C]high [|][C]..
I was [|][D]thinking about what a fr[|][A]iend had said I was [|][C]hoping it was a [|][G]lie [|]

VERSE 3
[G]..Well, I [|][D]dreamed I saw the silver [|][G]spaceship flying In the [|][D]yellow haze of the [|][G]sun
There were [|][D]children crying and [|][A]colours flying All [|][G]around the chosen [|][A]one
All in a [|][Bm]dream, all [|][C]in a dream The [|][G]loading had be[|][C]gun [|][C][|]
