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

Before you know it's begun (Before you know it's begun)

It's all we really got tonight
