   G#
I used to be your baby,
  C#                    Ddim7 G#
I used to be your pride and joy
    C#
You used to take me dancin',
              Ddim7 G#
just like any other boy
                D#            D#7/G
But now you've found another partner,
        C#              Ddim7 G#
you've left me like a broken toy

Oh, it's someone else you're taking
Someone else you're playing to
Honey, though I'm aching
Know just what I have to do
If I can't have you when I'm waking
I'll go to sleep and dream I'm with you

Chorus:
     G#
Oh, take me, take me,
 C7                      Fm   G#7
take me to the dreamer's ball
        C#        G#
I'll be right on time
           C#      G#
and I'll dress so fine
              B7
You're gonna love me, when you see me,
          D#    D#6 D#7 Ddim7
I won't have to worry
     G#       C7       C#
Oh, take me, take me, promise not to
Ddim7           G#                D#
wake me in the morning, when it's all
      G#
been true

Oh take me, take me
Take me I'm your plaything now
You make my life worthwhile
With the slightest smile
Or destroy me with a barely
Perceptible whisper
Gently take me
Remember I'll be dreaming
Of my baby at the dreamer's ball

Take me, hold me
Remember what you told me
You'd meet me at the dreamers' ball
I'll meet you at the dreamers' ball
