Intro
| [G]   | [C]   | [G]   | [C]  
| [G]   | [C]   | [G]   | [C]  

Well, I | [G] dreamed I saw the knights in | [C] armour coming,
Sayin' | [G] something about a | [C] queen.
There where | [G] peasants singin' and | [D] drummers drummin'
And the | [C] archer split the | [D] tree.

There was a | [Em] fanfare blowin' | [F] to the sun
that was | [C] floating on the | [F] breeze. | [F] |
| [G] Look at Mother Nature | [D] on the run
In the | [F] nineteen seven- | [C] ties. | [C]  

I was | [G] lying in a burned out | [C] basement
With a | [G] full moon in my | [C] eye
I was | [G] hoping for re- | [D] placement
When the | [C] sun burst through the | [D] sky

There was a | [Em] band playing | [F] in my head
And I | [C] felt like getting | [F] high   | [F]  
I was | [G] thinking about what a | [D] friend had said
I was | [F] hoping it was a | [C] lie   | [C] |

Instrumental

| [C] Well I | [G] dreamed I saw the silver | [C] spaceship flying
In the | [G] yellow haze of the | [C] sun
There were | [G] children crying and | [D] colors flying
All a- | [C] round the chosen | [D] one

All in a | [Em] dream, all | [F] in a dream
The | [C] loading had be- | [F] gun   | [F] |
| [G] Flying mother nature's | [D] silver seed
To a | [F] new home in the | [C] sun | [C] |
| [G] Flying mother nature's | [D] silver seed
To a | [F↓] new home... | [C↓]
