[Verse 1]
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 silken yet
D
It reaches through my skin
G
Moving from within
F#
And clutches at my breast
[Chorus]
Bm
But it's only when I sleep
D
I see you in my dreams
E
Got me spinning round and round
Em A
Turning upside down
Bm
But I only hear you breathe
D
Somewhere in my sleep
E
Got me spinning round and round
Em A
Turning upside down
Bm
But it's only when I sleep

A E
And when I wake from slumber
Bm
Your shadow's disappeared
A E
Your breath is just a sea mist
Bm
Surrounding 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

I see you in my dreams

Got me spinning round and round
