Sweet Dream chords by Alessia Cara

[Intro]

C  Am  Dm  G
 
 
[Verse 1]

   C                    Am
4:55, everybody else is snorin'
         Dm    
My heavy eyes, 
                    G
I can never seem to close 'em
           C           
My running mind just can't 
                    Am
catch you when it's goin'
              Dm    
Is it late at night or is it 
             G
early in the mornin'?
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 1]

        C            
Only so many sheep a girl can count, 
   Am
patchouli candles burnin' out
  Dm          
I try to meditate 
                G
it all away but damn, 

it is too quiet now
C           
Daylight helps distract my head, 
Am
monsters hide under my bed
     Dm                     
They bother me with 

all kinds of things like
  G
 "where do I go when I'm dead?"
 
 
[Chorus 1]

      C    
Is it too much to ask for 
  Am
a sweet dream?
Dm                       G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em     
Life is not so bad 
         Am
when I'm sleeping
      Dm       
Is it too much to ask, 
G               N.C
too much to ask for a
 
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
 
 
[Verse 2]

N.C.       
6:58, sun's peakin' 
            Am
through the curtains
         Dm        
I drift away, suddenly the 
           G
wheels are turnin'
                C       
Songs are in my head, 
                        Am
scary thoughts begin to worsen
               Dm     
Once I'm wide awake, 
                   G
it's too hard to reverse it
 
 
[Pre-Chorus 2]
         C          
Chirpin' birds are flying 
                    Am
'round my house, patchouli 

candles burnin' out
  Dm   
I try to meditate it 
             G
all away but damn, 

it is too quiet now
C                 
Daylight helps distract my head, 
Am
monsters hide under my bed
     Dm        
They bother me with 

all kinds of things 
     G
like that one stupid thing I said
 
 
[Chorus 2]

      C         
Is it too much to 
          Am
ask for a sweet dream?
Dm                       G
Need a step back from my feelings
Em       
Life is not so bad when 
    Am
I'm sleeping
      Dm 
Is it too much to ask, 
G               N.C
too much to ask for a
 
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
C       Am
  Sweet dream
Dm             G
   For a sweet dream
 
 
[Bridge]

C       Am      Dm    G
Sandman can you visit me?
C     Am      Dm      G
All I want is a sweet dream
 
 
[Verse 3]

   C                     Am
8:31, I'm slurrin' every word now
            Dm        
I pray this cold coffee helps me 
         G
with the rebound
              C       
How does everybody I know, 
            Am
know how to sleep sound?
                 Dm    
When we're all a mess, 
                 G       N.C
I guess the only way out is a
 
 
[Outro]

C       Am     
  Sweet dream (sweet dream, 
      Dm
sweet dream)

           G    
Is a sweet dream 
                C
(ah-ah ah-ah ah-ahhh-ah)

      Am         
Sweet dream 
                    Dm
(oh yea-eh-eh-eh eh-yeah)
           G
Is a sweet dream (yea-eh-eh)
C  Am  Dm  G
