There's a sweet dream on your pillow

There's a sad song in your eyes

There's a sunshine behind a dark cloud 

   G7                      C 
Up above you in fools thin air 



         F                  C 
She's an old friend she's a good friend 

        G7             C 
Hair of golden eyes of satin 

                 F                      C 
She's a won't be long friend till she's gone friend

And leaves you hangin in fools thin air

Like a lion rules the jungle

You're just flyin' through fools thin air

You believe in to get you there

Hair of golden eyes of satin 

                 F                      C 
She's a won't be long friend till she's gone friend

And leaves you hangin in fools thin air
