[Intro]
D  A  4x
[Strophe]
      D       A         G            D 
Did I see you down in a young girl's town, 
                            A 
with your mother in so much pain? 
      G      A            Bm         E 
I was almost there at the top of the stairs, 
         D                A    D 
with her screamin' in the rain
[Strophe]
        D        A     G        D 
Did she wake you up to tell you that, 
                        A 
it was only a change of plan? 
G               A          Bm        E 
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup, 
         D            A    D 
with the promise of a man.
[Strophe]
      D       A       G        D 
Did I see you walking with the boys, 
                          A 
though it was not hand in hand? 
        G          A         Bm     E 
And was some black face in a lonely place, 
     D              A      D 
when you could understand?
[Strophe]
        D        A     G        D 
Did she wake you up to tell you that, 
                        A 
it was only a change of plan? 
G               A          Bm        E 
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup, 
         D            A     D 
with the promise of a man.
[Strophe]
       D       A              G     D 
Will I see you give more than I can take? 
                    A 
Will I only harvest some? 
       G        A            Bm       E 
As the days fly past will we lose our grasp, 
   D              A     D 
or fuse it in the sun?
[Strophe]
        D        A     G        D 
Did she wake you up to tell you that, 
                        A 
it was only a change of plan? 
G               A          Bm        E 
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup,
[Strophe]
         D            A     D 
with the promise of a man.  
G               A          Bm        E 
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup, 
         D            A     D 
with the promise of a man.
