(C)So

was it in a (F)dream,
was it in a (G7)dream?
And I (C)know,

seemed so ver y (F)real,
seemed so real to (G7)me.
And I
Took a walk down the street,
through the heat whis pered trees.
I thought I could (Em9)hear,
(Em9)hear,
(Em9)hear,
(Em9)hear...
Some bod y call out my name (John...)
as it start ed to rain,
two spi rits danc ing (A)so strange.
Ah, bö wa ka wa pous sé, pous sé ah, bö wa ka wa pous sé, pous sé ah, bö wa ka wa pous sé, pous sé.
Ah, bö wa ka wa pous sé, pous sé.
Ah, bö wa ka wa pous sé, pous sé.
