Could Be Dreaming
 
[intro]
F# C#  F# C#*
F# C#  F# C#*
F# C#
C#
 
[verse]
C#                      F# C#
I could be sleeping
(C#)                    F# C#
I could be dreaming
(C#)                  A#m/F                          F#
I could have ordinary people kissing me from town to town
(F#)                                             C#
Mission Impossible, they've got a spy for every blink of your eye
 
[verse]
I'm feeling awkward
I'm feeling tongue-tied
They've got a knife for every time you take the same train into work
Family's like a loaded gun, you point it in the wrong direction
someone's gonna get killed
 
[bridge]
D#m
If you had such a dream
(Fm) F#                              C#
         Would you get up and do the things you believe in?
 
[verse]
Is he your husband?
Or just your boyfriend?
Is he the moron who's been beating you and keeping you inside?
I've never done this kind of thing
But if I kill him now, well who's gonna miss him?
 
[verse]
I went up to the school
I took a walk on Castlehill
For every step there is a local boy who wants to be a hero
F#                              F#m                   C#
Do you wanna do it now, outside the butcher's with a knife and a bike chain
 
la la la yeah yeah yeah yeah
 
[repeat bridge]

Use barre chords throughout:
F# = 9th fret barre chord (A shape)
C# = 9th fret barre chord (E shape)
C#* = higher chord voicing than C#, 16th fret maybe??
 
When you get to the G# F# part, just use <466544> and <244322>, respectively.

Stick a capo on and you can play with F, C, Dm and G which can be easier. Good tab
