D      C  G      D  C  G 
I like to dream        yes, yes 
D       C        G             D C G 
Right between my sound machine 
     D        C       G 
On a cloud of sound I drift in the night 
D     C        G 
  Any place it goes is right 
D      C    G             D        C      G 
  Goes far,   flies near,   to the stars away from here 
  
      D   C     G         D    C   G 
Well, you don't know what   we can find 
D             C         G 
Why don't you come with me little girl 
D      C     G 
  On a magic carpet ride 
D     C     G         D    C   G 
  You don't know what   we can see 
D             C         G 
Why don't you tell your dreams to me 
D    C       G 
Fantasy will set you free 
  
G                     Bb 
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl 
C                       G 
Let the sound take you away... 
  
     D       C      G 
Last night I held Aladdin's lamp 
D          C           G 
  And so I wished that I could stay 
D            C           G 
  Before the thing could answer me 
      D       C                 G 
Well, someone came and took the lamp away 
D   C      G         D         C        G 
  I looked   around,   a lousy candle's all I found 
  
      D   C     G         D    C   G 
Well, you don't know what   we can find 
D             C         G 
Why don't you come with me little girl 
D      C     G 
  On a magic carpet ride 
    D     C     G         D    C   G 
Well  You don't know what   we can see 
D             C         G 
Why don't you tell your dreams to me 
D    C       G 
Fantasy will set you free 
  
G                     Bb 
Close your eyes girl, look inside girl 
C                       G 
Let the sound take you away
