As recorded by Paolo Nutini (From the 2022 Album LAST NIGHT IN THE BITTERSWEET) [Intro] E [Verse 1]
E
I don't have much luck these days

                  A
With far too much time

                 B7
Lost a lot of my rhythm

A                 E
In this bubble of mine

E
I would sure like to help you

                   A
I will give you my word

                    B7
Then I'II fly away, brother

                  E
Float away like a bird
[Verse 2]
E
You don't get much dignity

                            A
You don't get much sense of pride

                        B
When your mind gets too narrow

A                      E
And your nose gets too wide

E
I breathe and I'm tryin'

                 A
In my cauldron tonight

                      B
Though a part of me's dyin'

A                    E
There's a part come alive
[Chorus]
               A
'Cause I had a dream last night

                E
That you were beside me

                B      A
Two kids in the garden

                E
And your love behind me

                       A
Though today may tastе bitter

                  E
Maybe tomorrow is gold

                B     A
Lord, wanna get happy

             E
Bеfore I get old
[Verse 3]
E
So I took out some paper

                A
And I dug out a pen

                       B
Poured myself out some water

A                    E
And I rinsed out the gin

E
I spoke of my dream that night

                  A
In the greatest detail

                B
Of my beautiful children

A               E
And my sweet Abigail
[Verse 4]
E
Ah, but before she can find me

                     A
Before I can let her in

                      B
Before no sweet happy endin'

A                E
Let the battle begin

E
Let the trumpets blow Valhalla

                 A
Let the soldier arise

                  B
Lord, let Abigail catch me

A      E
When I fall from the skies
[Chorus]
               A
'Cause I had a dream last night

                E
That you were beside me

                B7     A
Two kids in the garden

               E
And all this behind me

                       A
Though today may taste bitter

                  E
Maybe tomorrow is gold

                  B     A
Lord, I wanna get happy

             E
Before I get old
[Outro]
                  A     B7
Lord, I wanna get happy

             E
Before I get old

                  B7
Lord, I wanna get happy

A N.C.           E
Before I get old
