Verse 1
   G        Em       C        D
I caught a ride on the dreamland express last night
   G         Em     C      D
I was sailing on an ocean of blue,
 G         Em          C     D            G   Em    C
When right there by my side, much to my surprise; was you

Verse 2
G        Em        C         D
I said, "Come over here, baby, let me look in your eyes
G         Em     C       D
Let me see the very heart of you."
G         Em        C          D      G    Em   C
And I couldn't believe it, to concede that my dream had come true

Verse 3

She said, "Hey there, sweet daddy, everything's all right
For miles there's not a telephone line
There's not a soul to disturb us, don't be nervous, just come and be mine"

Chorus:
D/F#             D   G
Let me be the end of your rainbow,
D/F#            D  G
Let me be the stars up above,
D/F#               D  G
Let me be the one that you long for darling,
C          D          G       Em
Let me be the one that you love   (woh oh)
C          D         G
Let me be the one that you love

Verse 4

Well it's 4 in the morning, honey I can't sleep
I can't seem to get you out of my mind,
I keep tossing and turning, yearning for the sun to shine.

I'd like to send you a ticket on the dreamland express,
And take you far away with me,
I've got a vision of heaven, and you're living there with me.
