REM - I Don't Sleep, I Dream - 1994 chords
Start Jamming...
[A]
[Am]
[A] [C#]
[A] I'm looking for an interruption.
Do you believe?
You look into my dreams.
Be prepared for anything.
You come into my little scene.
Hooray, hooray, hooray.
There's one thing I can guarantee you won't have to dig too deep.
[Em] Say, leave me today.
Let's meet at tea.
I don't sleep by dream.
I settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need.
It's been a rough year for all of us.
[A] We've lost a lot of people, and we've gained a few.
Peter has twins, so has Otto.
Congratulations.
I didn't really do that much.
You [Em] did enough.
Whatever you did, [A] it worked.
You're doing it now, anyway.
Yeah, you make enough work.
I have two new kids, twins, that just like Dad, they do not sleep at night.
They do not sleep.
And they just, they're awake.
They're awake every hour there is.
It's really weird.
You'd think babies would have to sleep sometimes, but they don't.
I [Em]
guess so.
I don't sleep by dream.
I settle for a cup of coffee, but you know what I really need.
[A]
I'm looking for an interruption in you and me.
Some medicine for my headache.
Hooray, hooray, hooray.
I'm looking for a new direction.
It's been a way and a way.
Don't tell me my dreams are fading you.
[Em] These little twins will [E] be out with us.
That will bring a degree of [Em] normalcy to the whole thing.
It's kind of cool because they're at an age where they'll start the tour,
they'll just barely be crawling.
So by the time the tour's over, they should be walking and starting to say,
like, Dad, Dad, Mama.
So that's going to be kind of fun to watch.
How nice to grow up on the road with a bunch of uncles.
It's great because I'm in this band, these guys are my best friends,
and it's really great [G] because we flew up here [E] together from Atlanta
where we rehearsed.
It was like baby [Em] tossing.
Yeah, it was like, anyone want this one?
And I just hand them.
But they're really good with it.
I [Am] mean, every parent in the world thinks that they have the best babies in the world,
and I just don't see why I should be any [A] different.
You
[F]
