This is a great ballad.  It's a simple chord progression, but it has a 
lot of style and dynamics involved.  Enjoy! 
 
Intro: D Bm C A 
 
(Verse 1) 
-------------- 
D2           Bm   C                                   A7 
It's 3AM.      And I'm awake and my heart is still dreaming. 
 
D2           Bm   C                                      A7 
It's 3AM.      And outside I hear the souls still screaming. 
 
D2                    Bm   C                         A7
It's been so long, you know since my head's been this clear. 
 
D2                                      Bm     C                                 A7
Just like a ship lost in the night.      I just don't know which way I 

should steer. 
 
(Chorus) 
-------------- 
Bm                                  A7              Bm                                    A7                       
     
But I'll keep chasing my dreams.     And only you can make them real. 
 
Bm                                         A7
And I pour my heart out every night. 
 
Bm                                   A7 
But do you know the way I feel? 
 
(Verse 2) 
-------------- 
D2                               Bm     C                                                     A7
         
Sometimes this is work.       And don't you know sometimes this is play. 
 
D2                           Bm                       C                                             A7
           
Sometimes you are listening to me.   And sometimes you don't hear a damn 
word  that I say. 
 
D2                                 Bm  C                      A7 
Sometimes there's a girl.    Sometimes I go home alone. 
 
D2                                            Bm         C                            A7
And I guess it's no wonder right now.     That I do very well on my own. 
 
(Repeat Chorus)
