when you sleep, when you dream,
        Bsus2                 Bsus2               Bsus2

and you're all i see...
    Esus2              D# E5             C#sus2 Bsus2
and trumpets blew, and angels flew on the other side
           A5                    G#5
and you're all i see, and you're all i'll need
          F#5                        E
there's a love that god puts in your heart.
