Only If For a Night

         Am    F
         And I had a dream
     Am G
         About my old school
     Em F                                          Am G
         And she was there all pink and gold and glittery
                    Am              F
         I threw my arms around her legs
                 Am     G          Em     F
         Came to weeping, came to weeping
                                      Am G
         Came to weeping, came to weeping

                   Am       F
         Then I heard your voice as clear as day,
      Am G                Em      F
         And you told me I should concentrate,
         Am    G
         It was all so strange,
      Am     F
         And so surreal,
                   Am         G        Em   F
         That a ghost should be so practical.

              Am   G
         Only if for a night
     Am           F                   Am          G
         And the only solution was to stand and fight,
                Em      F
         And my body was loosened,
                                 Am G
         I almost saved your life,
                 Am       F
         But you came over me like some holy life,
      Am        G
         And I know the whole story,
       Em            F
         You're the only light
                Am   G
         Only if for a night

       Am         F                         Am G
         The grass was so green against my new clothes,
                    Em                F              Am     G
         And I did cartwheels in your honour, dancing on tiptoes
                 Am        F                   Am         G
         My own secret ceremonials before the service began,
                Em     F            Am G
         In the graveyard, doing handstands.

               Am       F
         Then I heard your voice as clear as day,
      Am G                Em      F
         And you told me I should concentrate,
         Am    G
         It was all so strange,
      Am     F
         And so surreal,
                   Am         G        Em   F
         That a ghost should be so practical.

  Am   G
         Only if for a night

                Em      F
         And my body was loosened,
                                 Am G

         My darling, my dear, my darling,
                                         Dm
         Tell me what all this sighing's about,
                                 Am        G
         Tell me what all this sighing's about.
