Rilo Kiley – My Slumbering Heart (Guitar)

  D
In my dreams

                       A
I see myself hitting a baseball

                                  Bm
In a green field somewhere near a freeway 

                             D               A
I'm all tan and smiling and running from 3rd base

         D
And it's hot and

                             A
The kids keep on playing the driving game

                                Bm
And they're singing the same goddamn refrain

        D                A
And the sky is a blueish grey.

D              A                     Bm
And its become just like a chemical stress

               D               Bm
Tracing the lines in my face for

               D                 Bm
Something more beautiful than is there

            A
I've barely been gone.

   D 
In my dreams

                               A           
I see you at the foot of some mountains.

                                  Bm
And we're taking some pictures or something

         D            A
And we'd better hurry up

        D
And it's late and

                                   A
The sun keeps on shooting through pine trees

                                     Bm
And the grass stains are wet on your new jeans

         D            A
And we'd better hurry up

D              A                     Bm
And its become just like a terrible mess

               D               Bm
Tracing the lines in my face for

               D                 Bm
Something more beautiful than is there

                     A
The crowds keep me coming back, cheering.

   D  A  Bm  D  A
In my dreams

                       A
I see you asleep on a twin bed

                           Bm
The covers pulled up over your head

      D         A
Am I asleep or awake?

       D
And it's morning

                               A
And the captain is playing the radio

                                  Bm
And hes just put the paint on his new boat

      D         A
Am I asleep or awake?

        D                           A 
And it just feels good when you're waking up

        D                           A 
And it just feels good when you're next to me

        D                           A 
And it just feels good when you're coming home

        D                           A 
And it just feels good when it's waking up

D               A                    Bm
And I've become just like a chemical stress

             D               Bm         
Tracing the lines of my face for

                D                Bm
Something more beautiful than is there

             A
I've barely been gone

D             A         Bm
and I'm not a failure I swear

                 D                 Bm
I wish you could see it from over there

           D                     Bm
I've got a lot over here without you

            A
I've barely been gone

Bm
gone
