G/F# G C G
Where I can dream my days away
(chords are the same for the remaining verses and choruses)
We took your tears back to the river
Knowing all the while there'd be more later
So it goes in a rainy day town
C'mon and won't you let me lay you down
Sometimes the sun makes beggars believers
And sometimes the shrine is built to deceivers
In between let oblivion ring
Oh let me hear all you sad angels sing
Appaloosa, appaloosa
Appaloosa, appaloosa
Take me home
Where I can dream my days away

Take me home
Where I can dream my days away
