1st verse:
His hands are clenched, his knuckles white
He got a gun, and gave up the fight
When I found out, I couldn't even cry
Well I am now, and I'm trying to figure out why
2nd verse:
He lies awake, with saddened eyes
Sleeping babies, keeping him alive

CHORUS - electric w/distortion

    I'll save it for you
	  	A5
You save me from me
			      A6
And the hole in my head I can see

Tell her I love her
		    A5
Tell the kids that I loved them
	    A6
Oh, it's a bad dream
		A5
I've got only time
	      A6
Yeah, it's a bad dream
		A5
I've got only time
		A6
You know it's a bad dream
		A5
I've got only time
		A6
I wish it was a bad dream (guitar solo)
		A6 (fade out)
I wish it was a bad dream

Cause it's gonna hurt a long time, (back to intro) yeah.
