Silly Dreams

Not sure who did this, but I've just rearranged it and added the words to
it for those who aren't sure where the chords go. And I think open chords
are best for this. Oh, and now I've added the solo as well. Cool.

G7 = 320001
E7 = 020130


Riff:
----
C Dm Am F


Verse:
-----
G
I had a dream you came back to my house
                     Riff x2
You changed your mind
G
I had a dream you came back to my house
                  Riff x2
To spend some time


Chorus:
------
G              G7          Am
You said you'd only stay a week
                G              F
You brought two cats for me to keep
            E7               Am                   F
And told me not to feed them tuna or they'd throw up


verse:
I fed them tuna and they threw up for hours and hours
I was amazed at all the stuff that came from those little bodies of theirs

chorus:
It was puffy like a sponge
The color of the sidewalk
And it smelled like the dirty rags beneath the sink


Instrumental:
------------

Starts at 1:53 with just the bass, then adds the solo. It shows above
where the guitar chords come in later on (if you have 2 guitar players;
if you only have 1 just play the solo).

verse:
I had a dream you came back to my house
And robbed me blind
You took my stereo, CD's, and tapes and books
You left nothing behind
I woke and up you were next to me
But I knew it was just a dream
I woke up again you were a thousand miles away

End on F.
