       D                            G
Well I dreamed I saw the knights in armor coming
       D                 G
Sayin' something about a queen
            D                    A
There where peasants singin' and drummers drummin'
        Gmaj7            A
And the archer split the tree
            Bm              C
There was a fanfare blowin' to the sun
         Gmaj7           C
That was floating on the breeze
D                     A
Look at Mother Nature on the run

In the nineteen seventies

      D                     G
I was lying in a burned out basement
       D               G
With a full moon in my eyes
      D            A
I was hoping for replacement
         Gmaj7                 A
When the sun burst through the sky
            Bm           C
There was a band playing in my head
      Gmaj7             C
And I felt like getting high
      D                     A
I was thinking about what a friend had said
      C               G
I was hoping it was a lie
D                     A
Thinking about what a friend had said

I was hoping it was a lie

Well I dreamed I saw the silver spaceships flying
       D                  G
In the yellow haze of the sun
           D                   A
There were children crying and colors flying
     Gmaj7            A
All around the chosen ones
         Bm        C
All in a dream all in a dream
    Gmaj7       C
The loading had begun
D                      A
Flying Mother Nature's silver seed
     C               G
To a new home in the sun
D                      A
Flying Mother Nature's silver seed
     C        G
To a new home
