Intro
F#m E Bm A x2
[Verse 1]
F#m
I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach
E
And the perfect waves are starting to come
Bm
His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold
A
And his touch has got the power to stun
[Verse 2]
F#m
I've got a dream 'bout an angel in the forest
E
Enchanted by the edge of a lake
Bm
His body's flowing in the jewels alive
A
And the earth below is starting to shake
[Chorus]
F#m
But I don't see any angels in the city
G
I don't hear any holy choirs sing
D
And if I can't get an angel
G A
I can still get a boy
Bm
And a boy'd be the next best thing
A G
The next best thing to an angel
A D
B boy'd be the next best thing
[Instrumental]
D C#m
[Verse 3]
F#m
I've got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle
E
And he's dancing like a cat on the stairs
D
He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes
A
And the thunder of a drum in his ears
[Verse 4]
F#m
I've got a dream 'bout a boy on a star
E
Lookin' down upon the rim of the world
D
He's there all alone and dreamin' of someone like me
A
I'm not an angel but at least I'm a girl
[Chorus]
F#m C#m
I've got a dream when the darkness is over
Bm
We'll be lyin' in the rays of the sun
D G A
But it's only a dream and tonight is for real
D
You'll never know what it means
G A
But you'll know how it feels
Bm
It's gonna be over (over)
C
Before you know it's begun (Before you know it's begun)
G
It's all we really got tonight

Stop your cryin' hold on (tonight)
