Strum a C
F C/E Dm7 G C
If you leap awake in the mirror of a bad dream
D7 (no top E) C C/B G Am
And for a fraction of a second you can't remember where you are
F C/E Dm7 G C
Just open your window and follow your memory upstream
D7 (no top E) C C/B G Am
To the meadow in the mountain where we counted every falling star
F C/E Dm7 G C
I believe a light that shines on you will shine on you forever
D7 (no top E) C C/B
And though I can't guarantee there's nothing scary
G Am
hiding under your bed
F C/E Dm7 G C
I'm gonna stand guard like a postcard of a Golden Retriever
D7 (no top E) C C/B G Am
And never leave 'til I leave you with a sweet dream in your bed

Gonna watch you grow

Gonna paint a sign
C
So you'll always know
F C
As long as one and one is two
F C C/D
There could never be a father
Am G Am
Who loved his daughter more than I love you
C
Trust your intuition
It's just like goin' fishin'
D7(no top E) C C/B G Am
You cast your line and hope you get a bite
F C/E Dm7 G
But you don't need to waste your time
C
Worryin' about the market place
Try to help the human race
D7(no top E)C C/B G Am
Struggling to survive its harshest night
