     E
I'd rather be dreaming than living

                            F#
Living's just too hard to do

       A              E
It's chances not choices

 A             E
Noises not voices

                               F#
A day's just a thing to get through

 E
Living's just too hard to do

     E
I'd rather be dreaming than talking

                             F#
There's nothing to hear or to say

      A                   E
With ears covered mouth closed

     A            E
The world is opposed

                     F#
Nothing gets in or away

         E
There's nothing to hear or to say
E F# A E A E F# E
     E
I'd rather be dreaming than thinking

                               F#
Thoughts are small comfort to me

   A                E
Dreams might be pretend

    A               E
But at least dreams end

                                    F#
And I just can't stop thinking you see

   E
Thoughts are small comfort to me

     E
I'd rather be dreaming than sleeping

                                 F#
Just sleeping you're just as well dead

     A            E
In dreams I can fly

     A             E
In dreams I don't die

                               F#
That's why I lie here in this bed

                      E
Just sleeping you're just as well dead

     E
I'd rather be dreaming
