#1.
A             E                     D
We're too far away from each other, we got 
   E     A
to get together.
A                           E
Because all I want to do is think about you.
D                         A
Don't you know there's no other?



CHORUS:
G         D                   E
Turn on a dream, girl, it's a beautiful thing 
   D
to dream, girl.
     E                   A             D
Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it 
          E                  A E
could be, why can't you see?



#2.
     A             E
What can I do, you won't let me show you.
D         E           A
Don't you know that I know you?
                     E               D        E
When I'm down and my daytime's blue, I get by thinking 
   A
of you.



CHORUS:
     G         D                 E                 D
Just turn on a dream, girl, it's all I wanna do is dream,
   
girl.
     E                   A             D
Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it 
          E                  
could be, why can't you see?



  A              G          A
I close my eyes, I can see, I can feel that it's 
G           C                 E
real..I can turn out the sad, turn on the glad.

#3.
A                     E          D
Shifting sand like an hourglass, waiting for the 
E       A
time to pass.
A                            E          D
But I'll keep waiting like I always do, dreaming 
      E         A
sunny dreams of you.



CHORUS:
G         D                   E
Turn on a dream, girl, it's a beautiful thing 
   D
to dream, girl.
     E                   A             D
Just think about you and me, yeah, and how it 
          E                       A E
could be, why can't you see? Yeah!
