G C
Burst into heaven
G C
Kiss in the cotton clouds
G C
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
D
I can't stop coming down
G C
Your shrunken head
G C
Looking down on me above
G C
Send me home like an elephant stone
D
To smash my dream of love
G
Dreaming till the sun goes down
F Fm
And night turns into day
G C
Rooms are empty I've got plenty
G D
You could move in right away
C D
Seems like there's a hole
G C G
In my dreams
In my dreams
In my dreams
Down through the heavens
Choke on the cotton clouds
Arctic sheets and fields of wheat
I can't stop coming down
Your shrunken head
Looking down on me above
Send me home like an elephant stone
To smash my dream of love
Did your bed and bookshelf go
And run run run away
These four walls saw the rise and fall
And your midnight getaway
Seems like there's a hole
In my dreams
Or so it seems
Yet nothing means anything
Anymore
