Midnight Summer Dream Chords by The Stranglers

_ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[A] _ _ _ _ [C#] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ I [D] woke up on a good day, [G#] _ [C#] and the world [F#m] was wonderful.
_ _ _ _ A midnight [D] summer dream _ [C#] _ had me in [F#] its spell.
_ _ _ _ [F#m] _
[A] I dreamt about an old man, [C#] _ who sat and [F#m] watched the rain all night.
_ _ _ [D] He couldn't sleep a wink, so [D#] the drops fell. _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[D] He told me of the beauty _ _ hidden in our [F#m] _ foreheads,
_ _ and he told me of [D] the ugliness _ _ _ which shouts [Bm] that.
_ _ _ [C#m] _ _ _
[D] And when we put a foot wrong, [G#] _ he would hurt from all [F#m] the pain.
_ _ _ _ I knew [D] that summer dream, _ [C#] as he watched the [F#] rain. _ _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [F#m] Then at midnight, I [D] had another dream come over my head.
[C#] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ And [F#m] after midnight, we sat [D] up half the night, [A] or [G#] maybe more.
And [B] he began to tell me what it was [G] all for. _ _
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] Woke up in [A] an old [C#] room chair, hit [Bm] the line [F#m] of nowhere.
_ Then [D] he existed, _ and [C#] loved, _
[F#] _ _ _ _ _ and don't [E] remember much [G#] at all.
But [F#m] his words were _ echoing.
_ _ _ [D]
Midnight summer dream, [C#] and then, awake [F#] again.
_ _ _ _ Maybe [D] I'll never find him.
_ _ _ Maybe [F#m] he's gone forever.
_ _ _ Maybe [D] I'll have to send him. _ _ _ _
[Bm] _ _ Why won't you [C#m] wonder what the [D] three of us _ [C#] are?
Will we [Bm] make it [F#m] out alive?
_ _ _ Show [A] me some words, [C#] that we [F#] all can [F#] write. _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [F#] Summer midnight, if [A] you can't sleep the night, well, [G#] then you're in.
[E] _ _ _ [F#m] After midnight, we [D] sat up half the night, or [G#] maybe more.
And [B] I'll begin [G] to tell you what [A] it was all for.
[B] _ _ _ _
