^D I took a walk around the ^Emyard Dug the flowers til it got too ^F#mhard F#m/A Bm I smoked my first pack of cigarettes today And, I ^Gwatched the children play.

And, I woke up ^Bmcrying ^F#min my ^Gsleep I was ^F#mtalking ^Bm to your ^Empillow ^A And I reached ^Bmout to ^F#mtouch your ^Ghand ^F#m And knocked the ^Emphone off the ^Bmnightstand And the ^F#moperator said, "M^Gay I help you please'" ^EmNo thanks baby there's ^F#mnothing you can really ^Gdo for me I ^Ajust had a bad ^Ddream, that's ^Aall that's wrong with ^Gme A D A--G--A I just had a bad dream.

^D Went out to loosen up the ^Emcar Some how I wound up at the rainbow ^F#mbar F#m/A Bm I had a scotch and soda on the run But, I ^Gdidn't get too far.

And, then I ran ^Ddown, down some friends I used to ^Emknow Dragged them out to see the ^F#mshow F#m/A Bm I drew myself a bath and I tried to read your book But you know ^Gbaby this time it ^F#mjust didn't seem quite worth the ^Emtime it took^A.
