[Verse 1]
D Am C
Splashdown in the silver screen
G
Into a deep dram-atic scene
D Am
I swim through the theatre
C G
Or maybe I'm just a dreamer
D Am C
Like a kite in the bright midday
G
Wonder stole my breath away
D Am
Shy sonata for Mercury
C G
The stars always sing so pretty
[Chorus]
A Bm G
This picnic will soon depart
D
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
A Bm
I'll miss you with all my heart
G D
But I'd rather be alone
A Bm G
'Cause I couldn't live without
D
The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
A Bm
So I'll drag the anchor up
G A D A Em
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
G D A C G
Dreams don't turn to dust
[Verse 2]
D Am
I'm made for the countryside
C G
And my eyes never grew so wide
D Am
Apple, raspberry, river blue
C G
I don't wanna leave without you
D Am
In the sound I'll gladly drown
C G
Into the emerald underground
D Am
And I rub my eyes 'cause it's hard to see
C G
Surrounded by all this beauty
[Chorus]
A Bm G
This picnic will soon depart
D
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
A Bm
I'll miss you with all my heart
G D
But I'd rather be alone
A Bm G
'Cause I couldn't live without
D
The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
A Bm
So I'll drag the anchor up
G A
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
[Interlude]
Em Bm A
I'm sad to see you go
Em Bm D A
I'd rather be alone
[Bridge]
Em Bm A
When tiger eyes begin making you blush
Em Bm
When diamonds boast that they can't be crushed
G A
Let 'em go 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
[Instrumental] (x2)

[Chorus]
A Bm G
This picnic will soon depart
D
Real life, I'm sad to see you go
A Bm
I'll miss you with all my heart
G D
But I'd rather be alone
A Bm G
'Cause I couldn't live without
D
The sunsets that dazzle in the dusk
A Bm
So I'll drag the anchor up
G A D Am Em
And rest assured, 'cause dreams don't turn to dust
G D Am C
Dreams don't turn to dust
G D Am Em G
Dreams don't turn to dust
D Am C G D
And rest assured cause dreams don't turn to dust
