Midnight Summer Dream

Year: 2006 - Album: Very Best of the Stranglers

Written by J.A. Black/Jean-Jacques Burnel/Hugh Cornwell/Dave Greenfield

	  		Intro: Dsus2  C#sus2  F#m   
       Dsus2  C#sus2  F#m 


Verse: 
       Dsus2 
Woke up on a good day 
C#sus2                      F#m 
     And the world was wonderful 
           Dsus2       C#sus2          F#m  
A midnight summer dream had me in its spell 
  Dsus2     
I dreamt about an old man 
C#sus2              F#m 
Sat and watched the rain all night 
                    Dsus2          C#sus2      F#m 
He couldn't sleep a wink as all the drops fell 


Pre-Chorus 
   Dsus2  
He told me of the beauty 
                        F#m 
      Hidden in our foreheads 
                    Dsus2   
He told me of the ugliness 
                Bm  C#m 
We show instead 
    Dsus2                   C#sus2  
And when we put a foot wrong, do we learn 
             F#m 
From all the pain? 
            Dsus2     C#sus2              F#m 
A midnight summer dream as he watched the rain 


tabchorus
Chorus: E F#m Dsus2 Then at midnight he poured another drink C#sus2 And bent my ear E F#m Dsus2 After midnight we sat up half the night C#sus2 Or maybe more B G F#m And he began to tell me what it was all for

Verse: Dsus2 C#sus2 I woke up in an armchair F#m He had gone, I don't know where Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Left me there to sit and look at the rain Dsus2 C#sus2 Don't remember much at all F#m But his words were echoing Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m A midnight summer dream and then wake again Pre-Chorus Dsus2 Maybe I'll never find him F#m Maybe he's gone forever Dsus2 Maybe I'll have to sit here Bm C#m Watching the weather Dsus2 C#sus2 One thing's pretty certain, helped me F#m Make it in the night Dsus2 C#sus2 F#m Showed me somewhere else between wrong and right <
tabchorus
i>Chorus: E F#m Dsus2 So at midnight if you can't sleep C#sus2 Then I can bend your ear E F#m Dsus2 After midnight we'll sit up half the night C#sus2 Or maybe more B G F#m And I'll begin to tell you what it is all for
