[E] [F] Just a [G] day, just an [F] ordinary [E] day
[F] Just trying [G] to get [F] by
[C] Just a boy, just an [F] ordinary [C] boy
But he was looking to [F] the [C] sky
And as he asked if I would come [F] along
I started [C] to realize
[C] That every day he finds [Am] just what [Em] he's looking for
[C] Like a shooting star
[E] He shined, [C] he said, take [G] my [F] [C] hand [F] [G] Let's [F] [C] dance
[F] Don't you [C] see you're in dreamland
Riding up on your [F] [G] hands
[F] [C]
[Fm] [G] [C] And as he spoke, he spoke [F] ordinary [C] words
Oh, though they did [F] not feel [C] no how
For I felt what I [F] had not felt [C] before
[F] And you'd swear [C] those words [F] couldn't [E] heal
And [F] as I [C] [Am] looked into [C] those [F] eyes
I said, [C] this boy [F] was mine
[Em] [C] And now [G] he's no [Am] stranger
For [Em] I feel [F] I've held him [G] for all of time
[C] He said, [G] take my [F] [C]
[G] [F] hand
[E] [C] Don't you see you're in dreamland
Riding [F] up [C] on [Am] your hands
[C] And as [G] I looked [C] into those eyes
I said, [Dm] [C] [F] [C] this [F] [C]
[F] [C]
[D] [G] boy [C] was mine
And now he's no stranger
For I felt what [F] [C] I had not felt before
[D] And you'd swear those [Bm] [C] words [G] couldn't [Bm] heal
And as I looked into those eyes
I said, this boy was [C] mine
And now [G] he's no stranger
For I felt what I had not felt [C] before
[G] Can you see?
[C]
Just a dream, just an ordinary dream
As I awake in bed
And the boy that had ordinary boy
Was it all [F] in my [C] head
And he asked [Am] if I would [C] come [F] along
It [C] all seemed so real
[F] But as I [G] looked to the [Am] door
I saw [C] the boy standing [G] there with a deal
And [C] he said, take my hand
[F] And [C] when you're in the house
[F] Don't you [C] know [Am] the dreams are [C] right [F] in the [C] [Am] house
Your [C] hands are hot [F] in the [G] hum
[Am] Your [C] hands are hot [F] in the [G] hum
[C]
Your hands
[F] Are [C] hot in [F] [C]
the hum
Just a day, just an ordinary day
Just trying to get [Dm] by
[C]
Just a boy, just an [F] ordinary [C] boy
But [F] he was [C] looking to [G] the
