Here is a simple campfire/sweetheart tune from about 1960. Bobby
Darin had a few pretty good pop songs - and he wrote them himself!
These chords may not be exact but that hardly matters with a tune
like this. Play the "because i want - a girl -" with a chunk-chunk
feel.
Dream Lover Bobby Darin
===========
Verse 1:
Every night I hope and pray, a dream lover will come my way
A girl to hold in my arms and know the magic of her charms
C / / G7 / / C / / F
Because I want a girl to call my own
///
I want a dream lover so I won't have to dream alone.
Verse 2:
Dream lover, where are you - with a love oh so true,
And a hand that I can hold, to feel you near when I grow old?
C / / G7 / / C / / F
Because I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover so I won't have to dream alone.
Bridge:
Some-day, I don't know how
I hope you'll hear my plea
Some-way, I don't know how
She'll bring her love to me
Verse 3:
Dream lover, until then, I'll go to sleep and dream again
That's the only thing to do, until my lover's dreams come true
C / / G7 / / C / / F
Because I want a girl to call my own
I want a dream lover so I won't have to dream alone.
