Dream A Little Dream

 Dream a Little Dream of Me - Fabian Andre, &Wilbur Schwandt, lyrics by Gus Kahn, 1931
                            (The Mamas and the Papas)

C       B7             G#7   G7
Stars shining bright a-bove   you
C         B7              A7
Night breezes seem to whisper “I love you.”
F                    Fm
Birds singing in the sycamore tree
  C           G#7           G7    
Dream a little dream of    me

C     B7                 G#7  G7    
Say “Nightie-night” and kiss   me
C     B7              A7
Just hold me tight and tell me you’ll miss me
F               Fm
While I'm alone and low as can be
  C         G#7   G7    C    E7
Dream a little  dream of    me

[Bridge:]
A      F#m7             Bm7           E7       A      F#m7               Bm7    E7
Stars fad - ing    but I     linger on, dear,  still   crav - ing your kiss
A    F#m7           Bm7      E7               A     F#m7  G#7    G7
I'm long - ing to linger till dawn, dear,   just saying this:


C         B7                       G#7  G7    
Sweet dreams till sunbeams find  you
C        B7                      A7
Sweet dreams that leave all worries far behind you
F             Fm
But in your dreams whatever they be
  C           G#7   G7    C
Dream a little dream of    me

        Instrumental
        
 Repeat bridge, repeat last verse
