Swans are floatin' by

Smoking chimney-tops

Am I dreaming
       A       C#7
Am I dreaming?

The nights draw in
There's a silky moon
Up in the sky, yeah
Children are fantasizing
Grown-ups are standing by
What a super feeling

Am I dreaming

"In the palm of your hand!"

(Dreaming) A cozy fireside chat
(Dreaming) A little this, a little that
(Dreaming) Sound of merry
Laughter skippin' by
(Dreaming) Gentle rain beatin' on my face
(Dreaming) What an extraordinary place!
          B/D#
And the dream of the child is

the hope of the hope of the man

Like a landscape painting in the sky,  yeah

Mountains are zooming higher, mmm
F/A
Little girls scream and cry
C#/G#
My world is spinning and spinning and spinning
G#m
It's unbelievable

          B
Sends me reeling
 G#m
Am I dreaming
       B
Am I dreaming
D          F#
Oooh it's bliss
