but it was only [Eb] a dream,
[Ab] [Eb]
[Bb] [Eb] [Bb]
only [Eb] a dream.
[Ab] And that night, the offer [Eb] my feet, [Bb]
only [Eb] a dream.
[Ab] There was dancing [Eb] in the street.
[Bb]
[Cm] And the big band [Ab] kept on playing [Cm] on [Bb] Bonaparte's retreat.
But it was [Eb] only a [Ab] dream, [Eb]
[Fm] [Eb]
[Ab] only a dream.
But [Bb] somebody tried [Eb] to knock it down, only [Ab] a dream.
But [F] that dream keeps [Bb] hanging around, only [Eb] a dream.
We [Ab] were rolling in [Eb] the snow, [Bb]
only [Eb] a dream.
[Ab] And we just [Eb] couldn't let go.

But [F] that dream's still [Bb] around.
Up on [Eb] Mockingbird Hill, [Ab] and I'm feeling no [Eb] pain.
[Bb]
While the [Eb] birds are singing [Ab] that oh so sweet [Eb] refrain.
[Bb]
If [Cm] I had to do it all over, [Ab]
I'd do [Cm] the same thing [Bb] again.
Because it was [Eb] only a [Ab] dream, [Eb]
[Fm] oh, [Eb] [Bb] because it's [Eb] only a dream.
[Ab] So knock me off [Eb] of my feet, [Bb]
[Eb] only a dream.
[Ab] We were dancing out [Eb] in the street.
[Bb]
[Cm] And the big band kept on [Ab] playing [Cm] the [Bb] Bonaparte's retreat.
But it was [Eb] only a [Ab] dream, [Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] oh, [Bb] but it was [Gm] only [Eb] just a dream.
[Ab] [Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] Oh, [Bb] but it was [Eb] only a dream.
[Ab] [Eb] [Fm]
[Eb] Oh, [Bb] but it was only [Eb] a dream.
[Ab] [Eb] Oh, what [Fm]
[Eb] a dream.
