Verse 1
(G major) Well at night he sits alone
and he's looking at the stars
He (C major) listens to them (A minor) playing guitars
Him (F major) and Filt go back (C major) a long, way
They talked about (G major) marching and dying
All (D major) in one day they play songs (C major) together
They sit up past the door (G major) (D major)
Well I wonder (C major) why his dream goes (A minor) (G major) on
You (D major) (A major) know Bob (G major) was there
last week as well
Well he's a (C major) quiet guy
but (A minor) he's got stories to tell
Our her (F major) o sits and listens
without (C major) asking why
And teaches Bob (G major) a minor
with a glint (D major) in his eye
Well Bob (C major) used it on Hollis Brown but that
Was some time ago (G major) (C major) (G major)
When (D major) is this dream gonna stop? (C major)
Heaven (G major) knows
Then (C major) our hero picks up (G major) his guitar
To play (A minor) the only tune (F major) he knows
He played (C major) it to me once, he said
(G major) Was it short?
(A minor) But this is how it goes (F major)
(D major) And then he sing (G major) s, one time
He sings, (C major) this is the only thing
that (G major) really matters
Keeps me golden, (A minor) retains my san (F major) ity
The (C major) nights I spend alone
(G major) when there's just billows (A minor)
Bob Dylan, (F major) Steve Good (C major) man,
David Blue (G major)
And me, (A minor) and me (F major) (D major) (G major) Stevie died
and then David died
But (C major) only to the papers that (A minor) live outside
Last Thursday (F major) they were in
the room where (C major) he sits
The (G major) three of them making jokes
about the (D major) meager old bits
And (C major) Steve and David smile
and they left quite soon (G major)
He wonder (D major) s about that dream
as he look (C major) s at the stars
and (G major) the moon (D major)
Sometimes he (G major) has a party
for him and the crew
They turn (C major) up on time
just cause (A minor) they always do
And Phil (F major) plays Ein March
and it's his (C major) fa vourite song
An (G major) d Bob plays harmonica
but he plays (D major) it all wrong
And Steve (C major) harmonises like he
did with John Prine (G major)
And (D major) David just sits and look
(C major) s blue all (G major) the time
Well, then (C major) the time comes round (E minor) again,
they all sit (A minor) and listen to our her (F major) o play
He says, (C major) well,
you've heard it all (G major) before,
but they like (A minor) it, so they shout (F major) encore
(D major) And then he sing (G major) s,
he's a dreamer, he's lost time
This (C major) is the only thing that
(G major) really matters,
keeps me (A minor) go ing, retains my san (F major) ity
The (C major) nights I spend alone
(G major) when there's just
Bill Oaks, (A minor) Bob Dylan, (F major) Steve Good (C major) man,
David Blue, (G major) and me, (A minor) and me. (F major)
Bill Oak (C major) s, Bob Dylan, (G major)
Steve Good (F major) man, David Blue, (G major) and me. (C major)
