C                                                        C 
Shoutin' number 20 as the running back takes your place. 
Am 
I wave from the bleachers at the 30 yard line, 
Cadd9 
You only look away. 
              G                   D 
Dont you see, What it does to me, 


[Refrão]
G 
When the game is called and the crowd goes home.

I get my chance with you alone 
          Cadd9 
All you seem to do 
                   D 
Is look right through me 
G 
I've dreamt of you a thousand times 
D 
But you dont even bat an eye 
              Cadd9

             D 
Or how i try, 
                                    D 
Im always the girl on the sidelines. 


C                                           G 
In the air or on the ground, I feel the spirit all around, 
C                                      G 
I guess you really drove it home agian.

As i watch you walk away with her in your arms 
      Cadd9 
Like im only a friend.

As i watch the instant replay, 
C                                              G  D  C 
Spinning round and round agian inside my mind. 


G 
I've dreamt of you a thousand times.

It doesnt matter what i do

Or how i itry.
