I used to dream myself to somewhere else each night

How anything could be

.. Better than a dream
Em Am Fmaj7 Fm6 C
Stranger than my wild imagination

If this is a real sensation,
C Cdim/D#, G#, G
it's better than a dream.

Higher than the moon,

Hazy like a beautiful illusion.

Crazy and in confusion,
C F G
And better than a dream.

I used to wish I was beyond some distant door,

I knew there must be more

to life and now I'm sure.

No dreams of pirate caves,
