      D       A         G            D
Did I see you down in a young girl's town
                            A
With your mother in so much pain?
      G      A            Bm         E
I was almost there at the top of the stairs
         D                A    D
With her screamin' in the rain


        D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
                        A
It was only a change of plan?
G               A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
         D            A    D
With the promise of a man


      D       A       G        D
Did I see you walking with the boys
                          A
Though it was not hand in hand?
        G          A         Bm     E
And was some black face in a lonely place
     D              A      D
When you could understand?


        D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
                        A
It was only a change of plan?
G               A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
         D            A     D
With the promise of a man


       D       A              G     D
Will I see you give more than I can take?
                    A
Will I only harvest some?
       G        A            Bm       E
As the days fly past will we lose our grasp
   D              A     D
Or fuse it in the sun?


        D        A     G        D
Did she wake you up to tell you that
                        A
It was only a change of plan?
G               A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup

         D            A     D
With the promise of a man


G               A          Bm        E
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
         D            A     D
With the promise of a man
