     Bm     A           E
     You're only just a dreamboat
                   Bm
     Sailing in my head
         A              E
     You swim my secret ocean
                       Bm
     Of coral blue and red
          A                E
     Your smell is incense burning
                            G
     Your touch is silk and yet
                            D
     It reaches through my skin
                     G
     Moving from within
                        F#
     And clutches at my breast
                             Bm
Chorus: But it's only when I sleep
                        D7
        I see you in my dreams
                        E
        Got me spinning round and round
                Em       A
        Turning upside down
                             Bm
        But I only hear your breathe
                        D7
        Somewhere in my sleep
                        E       
        Got me spinning round and round
                G        A
        Turning upside down

        But it's only when I sleep
     Bm         A         E
     And when I wake from slumber
                    Bm
     Your shadow's disappeared
          A                 E
     Your breath is just a sea mist
                    Bm
     Sorrounding my body
          A                  E
     I'm working through the daytime
                           G
     But when it's time to rest
                     D
     I'm lying in my bed
                     G
     Listening to my breath
                      F#
     Falling from the edge
 
  Chorus
                          G
     But it's only when I sleep
                 Bm/G# (faz o Bm e põe o dedo que estava na corda D na corda E no G#)
     Yeah, yeah, yeah
                 D
     Yeah, yeah, yeah
                 F#
     Yeah, yeah, yeah
 Instrumental - same chords as in the chorus
                              D
     It's reaching through my skin
                    G
     Moving from within
                        F#
     And clutches at my breast....
