Start Jamming...
[N] Far out, far around, far down, far up.
[C]
I'd like you [Bb] to hear a tune about, I guess about those discussions that I was talking [F] about
that I seem to have had in so many small circles of [F] friends around living rooms,
around pipes when they weren't selling no papers on the street,
and we were walking around this beautiful green place smoking
[E] [E] and not being afraid.
[C]
This is about all of us.
I love you people.
Had a dream last night, what a lovely dream it was.
I dreamed we all were alright, [Em] happy in a [E] land of ours.
[Am] Why did [C] everybody laugh when I [F] told them my dream?
[A]
[Am] I [F] guess they [C] all were so far [A] from that kind of [G] scene, feeling mean.
[C]
I heard a song last night, what a lovely song it was.
I thought I'd hum it all night, [Em]
unforgettable [E]
because
[D] all [Em] of the players [F] were playing [G] together
[Am] and all [Em] of the heavies [F] were light [G] as a feather.
[C] All I'll remember [Am] is the feeling tomorrow,
[G] but as I recall, [F] the rest will just follow.
[C]
Had a dream last night, what a lovely dream it was.
I dreamed we all were alright, happy in a land of ours.
What a lovely dream it was.
[Ab]
[G]
[C] [F]
[C] I've [F] been waiting my time just to talk to you.
You've been [Bb]
looking all down at the mouth and down at your shoes.
[F] Well baby, [C] I've come to give you [Bb] the news.
I'll [G] paint rainbows [C] all over [F] your blues.
I [G] heard [F] you've been spending a lot of your time up in your room.
[Bb] And at night you've been watching the dark side of the moon.
[F] You don't talk to nobody [C] if they don't [Bb] come to you.
[G] So baby, I came up here to sing [C] you a tune.
[Gm]
I [C] give up is all [F]
you've really got to say.
[G] Cause it's time to find our lifestyle, [C] cause that really weren't the way.
[F] Let's go for a bounce on my trampoline.
[Bb] I can show you the prettiest mountain that you've ever seen.
You [F] better run [C] to your closet [Bb]
and fish out your blue suede shoes.
I'll paint [G] [C] rainbows all [F] over your blues.
