[Ebm] [Bb] [Ab] Dreamy in the [Abm] afternoon, froggy when a-wooing, [Bbm] far where the clear-cut hilltops [Abm] are, I'd
be touching his guitar.
[Eb] [Abm]
Noticed Badger drifting by, Badger in his striped balloon, to the ball go drifting by,
not too [Bb] low and not too high, [Abm] through the dreamy afternoon.
Where the clear [Gb]-cut hilltops are [Bb] reflected [Abm] in the glassy lake, froggy plucked at his
[G] guitar through the [Gb] dreamy afternoon, [Bb] ditties drifting on the wind, [Ab] fingers picking out
the tune, never making [Abm] a mistake.
[Db] Fox was fishing with a [Ab] friend, [Abm] and they [Ab] listened by the lake.
[Abm] [Bb]
[Ab] [Abm] I'm just passing [Ab] time before the [Abm] ball, [Ab]
[Bb]
playing my [Eb] guitar.
[Ab] [Abm] I don't have [Ab] to be where I don't want to be [Fm] at all.
[Bb]
Maybe I'll [Eb] go home,
[Dbm] going [Gb] nowhere, sitting in [Abm] a dream.
[B] I'll [Gb] go home, [Gb] in [Db] a dream, [Abm] sitting in a [Eb] landscape [Abm] of our time.
[E]
Dream away [Ab] the [Eb] day, [Abm]
making up a tune about the blueness of the [E] skies.
This is where [Ab] I'll stay, [Eb]
going [Dbm]
[Gb] nowhere, sitting [Abm] in a dream.
[B] Oh, [Gb]
[Db] in a dream.
[Abm]
Froggy had set out a wooing, but having [Db] sung and having played, and found [B] that there [Bb] was
nothing [Abm] doing, comfortably [C] down he laid both [Dbm] himself and his guitar, [Ab] where the spotted [E] [Bb] agareks [Abm] are.
On [Bb] the pillow [Abm] dreaming, he saw [Db] uprisings [Eb] circling, [A] sea [B] [Bb] persons [Abm] known [Bb] to you and me.

between the [G] images [Abm] that drift along [F] my [E] chin, smile as [Eb] they are [Bb] wide.
