[G]
Every night I hope and pray, dream lover will come my way.
Girl to hold in my arms, know the magic of her [D] charms,
[G] because I want [D] her to [G] call [C] my own.
I [G] want her, dream lover, [Am] so I don't have [D] to [G] dream alone.
Dream lover, where are [Em] you?
With the love that's oh so true.
[G] In the hand that I can hold, [Em] keep you near as I grow [G] old,
because I want [D] her to [G] call my [C] own.
I [G] want [Em] her, dream lover, [A] so I [D] don't have to [G] dream alone.
[C]
Someday I don't know [G] how, I hope she'll hear my plea.
[A]
Some way I don't know [Am] how, she'll bring [D] her love to [Em] [G] me.
Dream lover, until then, [Em]
I'll go to sleep and dream again.
[G]
That's the only thing to do, [Em] till all my lover's dreams come true,
[G] because I want [D] her to [G]
call my [C] own.
I [G] want her, [Em] dream lover, [Am] so I don't [D] have to [G] dream alone.
[C]
Someday I don't know how, [G] I hope she'll hear my plea.
[A]
Some way I don't know how, [D] she'll bring her love to [G] me.
Dream lover, until then, [Em] I'll go to sleep and [G] dream again.
That's the only thing to [A] do, [Em] till all my lover's dreams come [G] true,
because I want [D] her to [G] call [C] my own.
I [G] want her, [Em] dream lover, [Am] so I don't [G] have to dream alone.
[Em] Dream lover, [A] so I don't [G] have to dream alone.
Dream lover, [Am] so I don't have to dream [G] alone.
Don't make me dream alone.
