(Lyrics are taken from elviscostello.com, Costello's official website.)
CGFC
I dreamed of my old lover last night
FAmDmC
I wonder if I spoke out loud
GDmFAm
If by chance my husband overheard
FAmDmC
He'd put my face back in the crowd
CGFC
His eyes were clear and gentle then
FAmDmC
He'd kiss the worries from my brow
GDmFAm
I long to fall to sleep again
FAmDmC
And I wonder how he would look now
CGFC
Would our kids grow stubborn or grow strong
FAmDmC
Would their limbs bronze insult to the sun
GDmFAm
I wonder how it feels but then
FAmDmC
I rarely dream of anyone
EAmGC
In the songs of shame and tales of dread
FAmDmC
Where they seal the lovers lips with lead
EAmGC
And all the vines wind through their eyes
F
But no one knows this passion now
Dm
No one knows this passion now
CGFC
So I keep this fancy to myself
FAmDmC
I keep my lipstick twisted tight
GDmFAm
I long to fall to sleep again
FAmDmC
'Cos I dreamed of my old lover last night
