[C#] [C#m] [E]
[A] If you [C#m] leap awake in the mirror [E] of a bad dream, and [F#] for a fraction [C#m] of a second you can't [E] remember
[B] where [C#m] you were, just [A] open your window [C#m] and follow [E] your memory upstream to [F#] the meadow
[C#m] and the mountain where we counted [B] every [C#m] falling star.
I [F#m] believe the light that [E] shines on you [C#m] will shine [E] on you forever,
and [F#] though I [C#m] can't guarantee there's nothing scary [B] hiding under [C#m] your bed,
I'm [A] gonna [D#]
[C#m] stand guard like a [E] postcard of a golden retriever,
[C#] and never [C#m] leave till I leave you the sweet [B] dream.

[B] [E]
I'm gonna watch you [A] shine, [E] gonna watch you grow,
gonna paint a [A] sign [C#m] so you'll always [E] know, as long [A] as [E] one and one is two.

[C#m] [F#m] [E] Trust your intuition, it's just like going fishing.
[C#m] You cast your line and [B] hope you get [C#m] a bite, [E] but you [A] don't need to [C#m] waste your time
[E] worrying about the marketplace, trying to help the human race, [F#] struggling [E] to survive [B] this [C#m] harshest night.
