Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed that you were older
You were looking like Picasso
Fm
With a scar across your shoulder
Db
You were kneeling by the river
You were digging up the bodies
Ab Db
Buried long ago
Ab
Michelangelo
Ab
Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed you were a pilgrim
On a highway out alone to find
Fm
The mother of your children
Db
Who were still unborn and waiting
In the wings of some desire
Ab Db
Abandoned long ago
Ab
Michelangelo
Fm
Were you there at Armageddon
Eb
Was Paris really burning
Fm
Could I have been the one to pull you
Db
From the point of no returning
Db
And did I hear you calling out my name
Ab Db
Or was it forgotten long ago
Ab Ab Db Ab Db Ab Db Eb
Michelangelo oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Ab
Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed that you were riding
On a blood red painted pony
Fm
Up where the heavens were dividing
Db
And the angels turned to ashes
You came tumbling with them to earth
Ab Db
So Far below
Ab
Michelangelo
Ab
Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed that you were dying
In a field of thorn and roses
Fm
With a hawk about you crying
Db
For the warrior slain in battle
From an arrow driven deep inside you
Ab Db Ab
Long ago Michelangelo
Fm
Did you suffer at the end
Eb
Would there be no one to remember
Fm
Did you banish all the old ghosts
Db
With the terms of surrender
And could you hear me calling out your name
Ab Db
Well I guess that I will never know
Ab
Michelangelo
Ab
Last night I dreamed about you
I dreamed that you were weeping
And your tears poured down like diamonds
Fm
For a love beyond all keeping
Db
And you caught them one by one
Ab Db
In a million silk bandanas that I gave you long ago
Ab
