[Intro 1]
[D][B][Bsus4]

[Verse 1]
[Bsus4]An other [B]time, another day,
[Bm]an o[D]ther baby on the way
The [E]dream boy for your nightmare nights
[B]He [Abm]never shouts and never fights
[B]Happy with your 2 .2
[Bm]What [D]else is there for you to do?
But [E]turn and wet the baby's
head and [Abm]pray
We'll be happier than you or me
That's how it's meant to [G]be
It's called [D]a lifetime
At first [G]you never notice
[D]Then the [E]years go flying by
And I say [G]tread [Em]lightly[G]
[B]in your dreams
[E]They might come [G]true
for [A]you tomor[B]row
Say sorry to the boys and girls
You're [D]sorry for this bloody world
[E]Sorry for the sick and old
I'm [Abm]sorry for the lies you told
I'm [B]sorry for the things I did
[Bm]The [D]things we should have left unsaid
And [E]walked away and left instead
Of [Abm]rubbing salt in all those open soles
And wounds we should have left to heal
[G]I never knew just what to [D]feel or to expect
I tried [G]to stretch my mind
But I'd just [E]get my body wrecked
And now I [G]tread [Em]lightly [G]in [B]my dreams
[E]They might [D]come [G]true to[A]morrow
[B]And I don[G]'t sle[Em]ep at[G] night[Bm][B]
In case I [E]don't wake [G]up tomorrow
[C#]I face the day I met you
But I won't forget you
Not in my life[B]time[D][E][Abm]
[B]Another time, another [Bm]day
You'd [D]never give your heart away
[Em]You'[D]d neve[E]r think and never cry
You'd [Abm]look the devil in the eye
And tell him to be gone, [B]bye [G]bye
He'll never get you in this [D]lifetime
He'd [G]love to touch you,
but [D]his [E]hands are tied
So just [G]tread lightly [B]in your dream[Bm]s
[E]They might [D]come [G]true for
[A]you tomor[B]row[G]
Tread lightly [B]in your dream[Bm]s
[E]They [Em]might come [G]true
for [A]you tomor[B]row
[E]They might [Em]come [G]true
for [A]you tomor[B]row
[E]Then I come [G]true to[A]morrow
[B]To [E]feel ali[Em]ve[G][D]
[B]inside [Bm]my dreams
And [Em]I co[D]me tru[G]e tomo[A]rrow
[B]Ton[B]ight, tonight, tonight...
