The Last Dream (Ray Thomas)
F G7
A simple man had the strangest dream
F G7
He stood in a garden of flowers that overlooked the sea
F G7 F G7 F / / C G7
And there sailing by were his truth and his lies going home
F G7
While all around the sweetest sounds
F G7
Filled the air with love they made his senses pound
F G7 F G7 F
He saw with open mind his life turn with the tide to go home
F / C / Dm / C / F / C / Dm / C /
F G7
Memories of youth had passed before
F G7 F G7
He and he alone could count the score for he was free he was free
F G7
This was his last dream
Bb / C / F / C / Dm / C / F / C / Dm / C /
[ ] x6
F G7
Such melodies are made to sing
F G7
The mellow sounds within a thousand violins
F G7 F G7 F G7
Caught upon the breeze they play in harmony sweet harmony
F G7
At last he knew his act was through
F G7
With no applause and no encores though the house was full
F G7 F G7 F
So bring the curtain down lay him in the ground for he's gone home
F / C / Dm / C / F / C / Dm / C /
F G7
Memories of youth had passed before
F G7 F G7
He and he alone could count the score now he is free he is free
F G7
This was his last dream
Bb / C /
