[Intro]
NONE
[Verse]
G Am G
Oh, my love, you were a constant contradiction
C G D
Your heartbeat's fantasy, a hidden picture
G Am G
Last night, you told me you don't believe in the one
C G D
Yet your eyes fill with tears as you watch the setting sun
G Bm
It makes me sad to think you can't see a life with me
C D
'Cause I dreamt we'd have some land one day and plant some apple trees
[Chorus]
G Bm C
Oh, I know you think I'm just a dreamer
G Bm C
And I know you think if I climb too high, I'll fall
G Bm C
Baby, when you say I'm just a dreamer
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
[Verse]
G C G
I know you don't wanna hurt me as much as I don't wanna hurt you
C G D
But, fuck, it hurts to think of one of us with somebody new
G Bm
'Cause when we're intertwined like lovers underneath the twilight covers
C G D
Time slows for a moment and our differences subside
G Bm
It's like angels are watching over us, well, there's nothing to say
C D
As we drift out in the water under moonlight far away
[Chorus]
G Bm C
Oh, I know you think I'm just a dreamer
G Bm C
And I know you think if I climb too high, I'll fall
G Bm C
When you laugh and say I'm just a dreamer
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
[Verse]
G
The first Christmas we were in love
C G D
You gave me a poetry book of story us
G C G
You wrote inside that you had caught a falling star
C G D
I wondered why you felt I was falling rather than shooting
G Bm
For how can someone so romantic build up so many walls?
C D
Boy, if you just let me, I can show you how to ask for more
[Chorus]
G Bm C
Oh, I know you think I'm just a dreamer
G Bm C
And I know you think if I reach too high, I'll fall
G Bm C
Baby, when you say I'm just a dreamer
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
Em D C
Oh, you're blowing out the candles in my heart
[Break]
G Am
And now my eyes are full of moon just like Joni's always were
Em D
You listen to her objectively while I imagine I am her
C D
Oh oh, I know she was your first love and you admire her all the same
C D
If only you could see that my fire was built from her old flame
[Chorus]
Em Bm C
Oh, I know you think I'm just a dreamer
G Bm C
And I know you think if I climb too high, I'll fall
G Bm C
Baby, when you say I'm just a dreamer
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my heart
Em D C
You're blowing out the candles in my hear-ar-ar-art
[Outro]
Em D
Oh oh ohhh oh oh oh oh
C Em
Oh oh oh ohhh oh oh ohhh
D
Oh oh oh oh
C C C C
Oh oh oh oh oh ohhhh oh oh ohhhhhh
