Verse 1:
Dm 
Sittin' in a Hong Kong bar 
Dm 
Sweet dreams of you darling 
Dm 
Ah when we were sweet sixteen 
Dm 
Mama makin' love in the belly of an old freight train 
Dm 
Life was so simple and easy

Oh the sun went down

You took care of the chill darlin'

One on one living on the track

Makin' love to you darlin'

Dm 
Remember the house we were going to build

On the far side of the hill

Whatever happened to those dreams of me mama

Don't dreamers ever win 
Dm 
But darlin' when I think about you

Got my pillows wrapped between my legs

And I think I love you every day
