I Still Dream, Richard Thompson transcribed by phillip@princeton.edu Intro F Dm C Am F Dm C Am

It was ^Gcruel of you to stand At my ^Fdoor and take my hand Like a ^Cdrowning man I ^C/Eclung to my de^Ffenses

And ^Gten years is a time but your ^Flooks, love, it's a crime And I ^Clost myself in the ^C/Etangle of your ^F/Afences ^C/G

^FAnd I never was to ^Gknow That I'd ^Ccome to ^C/Emiss you ^Fso But ^C/Gtime winds ^Dm/Fdown And I ^C/Gturned my ^Fback long ^Dago

But I still ^Amdream ^C/G Oh ^Dmdarling ^FI still ^Cdream ^F/C ^C I still ^Amdream ^C/G ^DmLord knows ^FI still ^Cdream ^F/C ^C

On the killing floor I stand With a stun-gun in my hand Like a cowboy shooting bad men on the range And nothing satisfies And the soul inside me dies As I duck each punch and never risk the change And now you look at me With that same old used-to-be But time winds down And I turned my back long ago But I still dream Darling I still dream And now you look at me With that same old used-to-be But time winds down And I turned my back long ago But I still dream Oh darling I still dream I still dream Lord knows I still dream I still dream Darling I still dream
