better than a dream
katie melua

D# Dm A# D#
i used to dream myself to somewhere else each night

Am Gm
i dreamed in colour ,

A# G# , A#
’cos i lived in black and white .

D# Gm
until i chanced upon

Cm G#
this road that led to you ,

D#
i couldn’t see

E#m A#
how anything could be

chorus :

D# , E#m A#
. . better than a dream

Gm , Cm G# D#
stranger than my wild imagination

E#m A#
if this is a real sensation ,

D# F# , B , A#
it’s better than a dream .

D# E#m A#
higher than the moon ,

Gm , Cm G# D#
hazy like a beautiful illusion .

E#m A#
crazy and in confusion ,

D# E#m F# A#
and better than a dream .

D# Dm A# D#
i used to wish i was beyond some distant door ,

Am Gm
i knew there must be more
A# G# , A#
to life and now i’m sure .

D# Gm
no dreams of pirate caves ,
Cm G# D#
or indian braves , or magic carpets could

E#m A#
ever be this good ,

chorus . .

D#
and better than a dream .
