Kunci Gitar Beautiful South - Les Yeux Ouverts Open Eyes

nobody seems to have chorded an accurate and simple version of this song or “dream
a little dream of me” by the mamas and papas , so i did them both . maybe this will
help us – franco relations!

thanks to petitangegris for version 5 ( the closest version of “dream a little
dream of me” ) , and professor jacques bereaud of cornell university for the lyrics ,
compiled by : mulder@wow . com – merci beaucoup!
