Verse 1

G Em C D

I caught a ride on the dreamland express last night

G Em C D

I was sailing on an ocean of blue,

G Em C D G Em C

When right there by my side, much to my surprise; was you

Verse 2

G Em C D

I said, “Come over here, baby, let me look in your eyes…

G Em C D

Let me see the very heart of you.”

G Em C D G Em C

And I couldn’t believe it, to concede that my dream had come true

Verse 3

She said, “Hey there, sweet daddy, everything’s all right…

For miles there’s not a telephone line…

There’s not a soul to disturb us, don’t be nervous, just come and be mine”

Chorus:

D/F# D G

Let me be the end of your rainbow,

D/F# D G

Let me be the stars up above,

D/F# D G

Let me be the one that you long for darling,

C D G Em

Let me be the one that you love (woh oh)

C D G

Let me be the one that you love

Verse 4

Well it’s 4 in the morning, honey I can’t sleep

I can’t seem to get you out of my mind,

I keep tossing and turning, yearning for the sun to shine.

I’d like to send you a ticket on the dreamland express,

And take you far away with me,

I’ve got a vision of heaven, and you’re living there with me.
