F#                 D

there's an emerald sky
    
       G            C#
 
silver birds flying by

F#                D

purple trees all around

       G            C#

velvet grass on the ground

B            B7          E          Em      B

then I see a face of the girl who's calling me

B                 B7            E        Em     C#

and love is in my eyes for this girl was just a dream

F#      B           C#

when I awake she is gone

F#      B         C#

and I return to reality

F#      B           C#

when I awake she is gone

F#           B              C#

because it's just a dream a fantasy

F#               D

then the morning light

       G          C#

slowly flows into night

F#             D

and I close my eyes

    G       C#

and reality dies

B               B7          E          Em      B

again I see the face of the girl who's calling me

B                   B7            E        Em    B

and now she's in my arms but this love can never be

F#      B           C#

when I awake she is gone

F#      B         C#

and I return to reality

F#      B           C#

when I awake she is gone

F#           B              C#

because it's just a dream a fantasy

B               B7          E          Em      B

again I see the face of the girl who's calling me

B                   B7            E        Em    B
