Intro
Dm C Gm F x2
[Verse 1]
Dm
I've got a dream 'bout an angel on the beach
C
And the perfect waves are starting to come
Gm
His hair is flying out in ribbons of gold
F
And his touch has got the power to stun
[Verse 2]
Dm
I've got a dream 'bout an angel in the forest
C
Enchanted by the edge of a lake
Gm
His body's flowing in the jewels alive
F
And the earth below is starting to shake
[Chorus]
Dm
But I don't see any angels in the city
D#
I don't hear any holy choirs sing
A#
And if I can't get an angel
D# F
I can still get a boy
Gm
And a boy'd be the next best thing
F D#
The next best thing to an angel
F A#
G boy'd be the next best thing
[Instrumental]
A# Am
[Verse 3]
Dm
I've got a dream 'bout a boy in a castle
C
And he's dancing like a cat on the stairs
A#
He's got the fire of a prince in his eyes
F
And the thunder of a drum in his ears
[Verse 4]
Dm
I've got a dream 'bout a boy on a star
C
Lookin' down upon the rim of the world
A#
He's there all alone and dreamin' of someone like me
F
I'm not an angel but at least I'm a girl
[Chorus]
