Dream Lover

Here is a simple campfire/sweetheart tune from about 1960. Bobby

Darin had a few pretty good pop songs - and he wrote them himself!

These chords may not be exact but that hardly matters with a tune

like this. Play the "because i want - a girl -" with a chunk-chunk

feel. -david.turner@rose.com (david turner)

Dream Lover Bobby Darin

===========

Verse 1:

Every night I hope and pray-e-he,

a dream lover will come my way-

a girl to hold in my arms and know-ooh-ho

the magic of her charms.

Because I [C //]want, a [G7 //] girl, to [C] call my [F] own.

I want a [C] dream [[Am] lover so [Dm7] I won9t have to [G7} dream [C]

alone. [G ///]

Verse 2:

Dream lover, where are you

with a love that9s oh so true

and a hand that I can hold,

to [Am] feel you near when I grow old?

Because I [C //]want, a [G7 //] girl, to [C] call my [F] own.

I want a [C] dream [[Am] lover so [Dm7] I won9t have to [G7} dream [C]

alone.

Someday, I don9t know how,

I hope you9ll hear my plea.

Someway, I don9t know how,

She9ll bring her love to me.

Verse 3:

Dream lover, until then,

I9ll go to sleep and dream again.

That9s the only thing to do

until my 3lovers dreams2 come true.

Because I [C //]want, a [G7 //] girl, to [C] call my [F] own.

I want a [C] dream [[Am] lover so [Dm7] I won9t have to [G7} dream [C]

alone.
