     Drift Off To Dream

     Played in 3/4 time.  Each measure gets 3 beats.  Has anyone noticed
     that almost all I sumbit are waltz?

     Intro:

     G | C | D | C
     G | C | D | C

     Verse 1

          G                      F
     As I sit here surrounded by people and lights
     C                          G  C
     Alone with my drink at the bar
            G                    F
     You've been here forever so clear in my mind
     C                           G
     I just don't know where you are
           D         Bm           Em
     But I know I'll find you but girl 'til I do
     C                        D   D2
     This is my love song for you

     Chorus
                G                                  D
     Let's hold hands on the porch swing under the moon
               C                        G          D
     While the wind through the willows plays us a tune
            G                    D
     We can lie on a blanket out back in the yard
         C                         G        D
     And wish for our furture on a far away star
         Em                         Em/add D#
     And you'll feel the passion as time after time
     Em7                        A7
     I press your sweet lips to mine
            G                  D
     We can dance to the radio right up 'til dawn
              C            D           G  C  G
     'Til you drift off to dream in my arms

     Verse 2
      G                       F
     You might be hundreds or more miles away
        C                          G   C
     Or you might be just down the street
         G                       F
     But there'll be a hunger so deep in your eyes
          C                      G
     That I'll recognize when we meet
     D             Bm       Em
     It might take hours or it might take years
         C                         D
     But this is the song you will hear

     Repeat Chorus

     Ending
         Em                         Em/add D#
     And you'll feel the passion as time after time
     Em7                        A7
     I press your sweet lips to mine
            G                  D
     We can dance to the radio right up 'til dawn
             C             D           G
     'til you drift off to dream in my arms
