Dream Letter
(Tim Buckley)
TIM BUCKLEY
>From Happy/Sad, 1968
Gm Eb Ebsus4 Ab Bb G
Lady time fly away
Cm Eb Dm Dm/A Bb C Am Gm C F
I’ve been thinking ’bout my yesterday
F C G Dm
Oh, please listen darlin’ to my empty prayers
Am C Dm
Sleep inside my dreams tonight
Am C Dm Am Gm Dm
All I need to know tonight are you and my child
F C G Dm
Oh, is he a soldier or is he a dreamer?
Am C Dm
Is he mama’s little man?
Am C Dm
Does he help you when he can?
Am Gm Dm
Or does he ask about me?
F C G Dm
Just like a soldier boy I been out fighting wars
Am C Dm
That the world never knows about
Am C Dm
But I never win them loud
Am Gm Dm
There’s no crowds around me
F C G Dm
But when I get to thinkin’ about the old days
Am C Dm
When love was here to stay
Am C Dm
I wonder if we’d ever tried
Am Gm Dm C Dm
Oh, what I’d give to hold him
