D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em
I went down to see the morning, when the shutters all were drawn
A A/G A/F# A/E D G D
And the sidewalk tables empty, and the laughing voices gone
G D G A
And from some upstairs window, in the blue and gray of dawn
G A D G D A D Dsus/G
Came the fa-ded sound of somebody who played my song
Chorus:
D A G D
I had a dream and I gave it a name
G A D A
The name that I gave it was your name
D A G D
I had a dream and I gave it a name
G A D A D Dsus/G
The name that I gave it was you-our name
D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em
I was fighting phantom windmills, made of nothing left to do
A A/G A/F# A/E D G D
But live among the shadows, of the days I made it through
G D G A
With lies and false pretenses, that tomorrow would be new
G A D G D A D Dsus/G
And it was, because, just like a dream I discov-ered you
Chorus
D D/C# D/B D/A G G/F# Em
And the Mirabeau Bridge is crowded, with the ones who love the night
A A/G A/F# A/E D G D
And the river laughing endlessly, like the wild café life
G D G A
Full of words from every language, across the candlelight
G A D G D A D Dsus/G
As it shines like love in the eyes that I ne-eed tonight
Chorus
