[Verso 1]
 
A       D           E            A            D 
I can't remember the dream that I had last night 
      E           A          D 
But I woke with delight and excitement 
    E           A         D            E         A            D 
And then when I tried to remember the dream that I had last night 
     E              A         D          E 
It was gone but the feeling I had in the dream stayed on 


[Refrão]
 
A          D           Bm         E 
When I'm awake and I look around me 
        F#m       Bm            D             C# 
I can faithfully record everything that I can see 
A          D        Bm         E 
Most of my memories tend to be sad 
     F#m          Bm            E           A 
So I wish I could remember the dream that I had

[Verso 2]
 
A          D          E           A        D 
I can't remember the dream that I had last night 
   E         A            D         E           A 
If I could I would write it out, underline the highlights 
       D          E        A         D 
Of the dream that would now redefine my life 
     E        A        D               E 
Be a new road map, affirmation, and guiding light 

A          D           Bm         E 
When I'm awake I note all that I see 
  F#m                Bm           D       C# 
And remember it with photographic accuracy 
A          D           Bm         E 
Most of my memories tend to be bad 
      F#m          Bm            E          A 
And I'm sad I can't remember the dream that I had 


[Ponte]

 F#m                Bm 
Why can't I remember it 
C# 
when 
  D 
I can't 
Bm 
forget 
D          E 
unpleasant thoughts? 
  C#       D         E 
 I want to push them away 
C#          D           Bm 
  They creep like weeds, 
      D            E   C#     D      E 
like weeds they cover all the flowerbeds 

A  D   E   A  D  E 

A          D          E           A        D 
I can't remember the dream that I had last night 
 E         A            D         E           A 
But the simple fact that my mind could concoct such a thing 
 D          E                    A        D 
As the incredible dream that I had last night 
     E            A        D               E 
Is a clue to the key to a door to a world like that 

A          D           Bm         E 
My daily life doesn't interest me 
 F#m                Bm           D         C# 
It's a never-ending litany of pain and ennui 
A          D              Bm         E 
This waking nightmare is driving me mad 
      F#m          Bm            E          A 
And I wish I could remember the dream that I had 

A          D           Bm         E 
When I'm awake I note all that I see 
 F#m                Bm           D       C# 
And remember it with photographic accuracy 
A          D           Bm         E 
All of my memories make me feel bad 
      F#m          Bm            E          A 
And I'm sad I can't remember the dream that I had 
 F#m          Bm            E          A 
Why can't I remember the dream that I had? 
 F#m            Bm          E             F 
Wish I could go live in the dream that I had
