Intro
F#5 B5/F# F#5 B5/F# x3
[Verse 1]
F#5 B5 F#5 B5
When the deep blue night is running close on your track
F#5 B5 F#5 B5
And you can feel the green monkey crawlin' across your back
F#5 B5 F#5 B5
Don't take me so real that you forget how to feel
F#5 B5 F#5 B5
Don't let the threat of the dagger turn your heart into steel
[Chorus]
C#m9 F#7
Smell the perfume of a silent dream
C#m9 F#7
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
C#m9 F#7
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
A N.C.
Speak to me
[Interlue]

[Verse 2]
B5 F#5 B5 F#5 B5
So you think that star cluster shining bright in the sky
F#5 B5 F#5
Will speak the fate of your evening, tell the truth to your lie
B5 F#5 B5 F#5
Don't let the features you read control the tickets you buy
B5 F#5 B5 F#5 B5
Soon as you learn that you live, you're just beginning to die
[Chorus]
C#m9 F#7
Smell the perfume of a silent dream
C#m9 F#7
Fly the ocean, read a story to me
C#m9 F#7
Speak the wisdom of a redwood tree
A N.C.
Speak to me
