Alessia Cara - Sweet Dream

[Intro]
C Am Dm G

[Verse 1]
C Am
4:55, everybody else is snorin’
Dm G
My heavy eyes, I can never seem to close ‘em
C Am
My running mind just can’t catch you when it’s goin’
Dm G
Is it late at night or is it early in the mornin’?

[Pre-Chorus 1]
C Am
Only so many sheep a girl can count, patchouli candles burnin’ out
Dm G
I try to meditate it all away but damn, it is too quiet now
C Am
Daylight helps distract my head, monsters hide under my bed
Dm G
They bother me with all kinds of things like “where do I go when I’m dead?”

[Chorus 1]
C Am
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream?
Dm G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em Am
Life is not so bad when I’m sleeping
Dm G N.C.
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a

C Am

Dm G

[Verse 2]
N.C. Am
6:58, sun’s peakin’ through the curtains
Dm G
I drift away, suddenly the wheels are turnin’
C Am
Songs are in my head, scary thoughts begin to worsen
Dm G
Once I’m wide awake, it’s too hard to reverse it

[Pre-Chorus 2]
C Am
Chirpin’ birds are flying ‘round my house, patchouli candles burnin’ out
Dm G
I try to meditate it all away but damn, it is too quiet now
C Am
Daylight helps distract my head, monsters hide under my bed
Dm G
They bother me with all kinds of things like that one stupid thing I said

[Chorus 2]
C Am
Is it too much to ask for a sweet dream?
Dm G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em Am
Life is not so bad when I’m sleeping
Dm G N.C.
Is it too much to ask, too much to ask for a

C Am
Sweet dream
Dm G
For a sweet dream
C Am
Sweet dream
Dm G
For a sweet dream

[Bridge]
C Am Dm G
Sandman can you visit me?
C Am Dm G
All I want is a sweet dream

[Verse 3]
C Am
8:31, I’m slurrin’ every word now
Dm G
I pray this cold coffee helps me with the rebound
C Am
How does everybody I know, know how to sleep sound?
Dm G N.C.
When we’re all a mess, I guess the only way out is a

[Outro]
C Am Dm
Sweet dream (sweet dream, sweet dream)
G C
Is a sweet dream (ah-ah ah-ah ah-ahhh-ah)
Am Dm
Sweet dream (oh yea-eh-eh-eh eh-yeah)
G
Is a sweet dream (yea-eh-eh)
C Am Dm G
