[Verse 1]
B E Last night as I lay dreaming I dreamed a dream so fair B E I dreamed about my darling a rose was in her hair B E I dreamed I left this prison started life anew A E B E She told me that she loved me told me her love was true.
[Chorus]
A E It was only a dream, just a prisoner's dream B E As I lay on my cold prison bed A E My dreams of you can never come true B E Dear girl, I wish that I were dead.
[Verse 2]
B E I dreamed about my darling she kissed me and held me tight B E I dreamed that we were married dreamed of a starry night B E I dreamed about our children playing around my knee A E B E They loved me called me daddy they thought the world of me.
[Chorus]
A E It was only a dream, just a prisoner's dream B E As I lay on my cold prison bed A E My dreams of you can never come true B E Dear girl, I wish that I were dead.
