A girls that some men only find in their dreams
         E7                     
When she smiles it seems the stars all know
             A7                             Adim
Cause one by one they start to light up the sky

                G                G7
When she starts talking soft and sweet
                         B7
Like birds of spring her words all seem to sing
       E7       
With a rhythm that is made of love
        A7                      Adim
And the happiness that she only brings
