02 Dead man's dream From "Home" composed by Brooker-Reid
intro:
Dm E7 Cm Ebm D D7
Bbm F Fm Eb
As I lay down dying, a floor for my bed
Bbm F Fm Eb Cm7
And a bundle of newspaper under my head
Ebm7 B Ab7 Cm/G
I dreamed a dream, as strange as could be
Cdim Bbm/Db C Fm bass: F E F G
Concerning myself, and somebody like me
Ab Eb Ab Gm Eb,Bb/D,Dbdim
Bbm F Fm Eb
We were in some city, the stranger and me
Bbm F Fm Eb Cm7 Ebm
The houses were open, and the streets empty
B /A Ab Cm
The windows were bare, and the pavements dirty
F#o Bbm C7 Fm (Bass F,E,F,G)
I asked where I was; my companion ignored me
Ab F/A Bbm

Bbm F#m7/A
We entered a graveyard and searched for a tombstone
E/G# F#m
The graves were disturbed, and the coffins wide open
E Bm/D
And the corpses were rotten, yet each one was living
C#m Bm A G F#5
Their eyes were alive with maggots crawling
Bbm F#m7/A
I cried out in fear, but my voice had left me
E/G# F#m
My legs were deformed, yet I moved quite freely
E bass(E,F#,G#,A,B,C#) Bm/D E
My head was on fire, yet my hands were icy
Bass:E,F#,G,A,E,F#,G,A
C#m Bm
And everywhere light, yet darkness engulfed me
A G F#5
solo on: Dm E Cm D5
Bbm F Fm Eb
I managed to scream and woke from my slumber
Bbm F Fm Eb Cm7 Ebm7
I thought of my dream and lay there and wondered
B Ab Cm
Where had I been? What could it mean?
F#dim Bbm
It was dark in the deathroom
as I slithered under
