Intro: G Am B7 C G
G
We�re driving through the canyons
Singing songs from the sixties
Am
The telephone rang, she said,
�Babe, do you miss me?�
D7 G
And ain�t it a shame not to love the one you�re with
G
Well she spoke with the prettiest mouth
And she scorned me
Am
She sharpened her teeth
And flashed them to warn me
D7 G
Said, "ain�t it a shame when you hate the one you loved"
Em
And it couldn�t be me
Am
It couldn�t be me
B7
No, the man in your dreams
C G
He don�t look a thing like me
G
See I dated a rich girl
With a mother of pearl
Am
Who paid rent in her high rise
The weight of the world
D7 G
And ain�t it a shame when you�re exchangin� all your brand new gifts
G
And after a night on the floor,
She put the chain on her door
Am
I wore out my welcome
I guess she got bored
D7 G
'Cause she laid eyes on my brother and laid him across my bed
Em
And it couldn�t be me
Am
It couldn�t be me
B7
No, the man in your dreams
C G
He don�t look a thing like me
G Am B7 C G
G
Well it sounds like rain
And here that�s a rare thing
Am
Out here in the desert,
We're stealing our water
D7 G
From a hole in a mountain that flows to the affordable homes
G
And from my faucet it drips
So we'll clean up the messes
Am
The others have left us
Well I think they blessed us
D7 G
There�s a chain on my door but I�m in love with the one I�m with
Em
And it couldn�t be me
Am
It couldn�t be me
B7
No, the man in your dreams
C G
He don�t look a thing like me
Em
And it couldn�t be me
Am
No, it couldn�t be me
B7
No, the man in your dreams
C G
He don�t look a thing like me
