Intro
G#5 C#5/G# G#5 C#5/G# x3
[Verse 1]
G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
When the deep blue night is running close on your track
G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back
G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel
G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel
[Chorus]
D#m9 G#7
Smell the perfume of a silent dream
D#m9 G#7
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
D#m9 G#7
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
B N.C.
Speak to me
[Interlue]

[Verse 2]
C#5 G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
So you think that star cluster shining bright in the sky
G#5 C#5 G#5
Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie
C#5 G#5 C#5 G#5
Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy
C#5 G#5 C#5 G#5 C#5
Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die
[Chorus]
D#m9 G#7
Smell the perfume of a silent dream
D#m9 G#7
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
D#m9 G#7
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
B N.C.
Speak to me
