The Dark Is Rising Mercury Rev
[C] I dreamed of you on [G]my farm
I dreamed of you in [F]my arms
But dreams are always [C]wrong
I never dreamed I'd [G]hurt you
I never dreamed I'd l[F]ose you
In my dreams I'm always str[C]ong
[F] But now the creek is r[C]ising
[F] And all my bridges b[C]urned
[C]I always dreamed of b[G]ig crowds
Plumes of smoke and h[F]igh clouds
But dreams don't last for [C]long
Repeat intro chords twice
Verse 2 (same chords as first verse)
I have my suspicions
When the stars are in position
All will be revealed
But I know that until then
Unless the stars surrender
All will be concealed
And now the snow is falling
And all my fences torn
I know you need someone
And I can hear someone
Somewhere in this song
Repeat intro chords twice
Verse 3 (same chords as first verse except where noted)
I dreamed that I was walking
And the two of us were talking
Of all life's mystery
The words that flow between friends
Winding streams without end
I wanted you to see
[F] But it can seem surpr[C]ising
[F] When you find yourself al[C]one
[F] And now the dark is r[C]ising
[F] And a brand new moon is b[C]orn
I always dreamed I'd love you
I never dreamed I'd lose you
In my dreams I'm always strong.
Finish on C
The intro bit sounds best (to me) if you play the following chords;
C at the eighth fret (E shape)
Gm at the tenth fret (Am shape)
Bb at the sixth fret (E shape)
F at the eighth fret (A shape)
For the rest of the song use these chord shapes:
C - X32010
G - 320003
[F] [-] [133211]
And that's your lot.
