This is a great ballad. It's a simple chord progression, but it has a
lot of style and dynamics involved. Enjoy!

Intro: D-D-C-A

(Verse 1)
--------------
D D C A
It's 3AM. And I'm awake and my heart is still dreaming.

D D C A
It's 3AM. And outside I hear the souls still screaming.

D D C A
It's been so long, you know since my head's been this clear.

D D C
A
Just like a ship lost in the night. I just don't know which way I
should steer.

(Chorus)
--------------
D A D
A
But I'll keep chasing my dreams. And only you can make them real.

D A
And I pour my heart out every night.

D A
But do you know the way I feel?

(Verse 2)
--------------
D D C
A
Sometimes this is work. And don't you know sometimes this is play.

D D C

Sometimes you are listening to me. And sometimes you don't hear a damn
word

A
that I say.

D D C A
Sometimes there's a girl. Sometimes I go home alone.

D D C
A
And I guess it's no wonder right now. That I do very well on my own.

(Repeat Chorus)

(Repeat verse 1 slower and arpegiate the chords)
