Just A Dream Lyrics Ukulele tab

	         Em                                     G 
It was two weeks after the day she turned eighteen 
                Em 
All dressed in white 

Going to the church that night 
       
            Em                               G 

She had his box of letters in the passenger seat 
               Em                                  G 
Sixpence in a shoe, something barrowed, something blue 
                C 
And when the church doors opened up wide 

She put her veil down 
                    G 
Trying to hide the tears 

Oh she just couldn't believe it 
             C 
She heard trumpets from the military band 
         D 
And the flowers that I never had 



G 
Baby why'd you leave me 

Why'd you have to go? 
        Em                                  Am  
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 
C              D 
I can't even breathe 
               G 
It's like I'm looking from a distance 

Standing in the background 
Em                                        Am 
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now 
              C            D 
This can't be happening to me 
         Em          G 
This is just a dream 

     Em                                        G 
The preacher man said let us bow our heads and pray 
Lord please lift his soul, and heal this hurt 
Then the congregation all stood up and sang the saddest song that she ever heard 
Then they handed her a folded up flag 
And she held on to all she had left of him 
Oh, and what could have been 
And then the guards rang one last shot 
And it felt like a bullet in her heart 

Baby why'd you leave me 
Why'd you have to go? 
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 
I can't even breathe 
It's like I'm looking from a distance 
Standing in the background 
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now 
This can't be happening to me 
                   G Em Am C D 
This is just a dream 

Oh,  
Baby why'd you leave me 
Why'd you have to go? 
I was counting on forever, now I'll never know 
                    Em 
Oh, now I'll never know 

               G 
It's like I'm looking from a distance 
Standing in the background 
Everybody's saying, he's not coming home now 
This can't be happening to me 
                  G Em Am C D 
This is just a dream 
                G Em Am C D 
Oh, this is just a dream 

  Em 
Just a dream 
Yeah, Yeah
