Annette Tucker and Nancy Mantz wrote a bunch of punkadelic classics (unusual
for women in that era) including this #11 hit for the Seattle-based Electric
Prunes.  --AWR

Verse 1:

	Dm                               C
	   Last night your shadow fell upon my lonely room
	Dm                                 C
	   I touched your golden hair and tasted your perfume
	Gm                                     Dm
	   Your eyes were filled with love the way they used to be
	Gm                                  Dm         G [N.C.]
	   Your gentle hand reached out to comfort me

	               Dm
	Then came the dawn
	             C#m
	And you were gone
	          G     F     Eb [N.C.]
	You were gone, gone, gone

Chorus:

	Dm                     G
	   I had too much to dream last night
	Dm               G
	   Too much to dream
	Dm                   G
	   I'm not ready to face the light
	Dm                     A
	   I had too much to dream
	      Dm   C  Bb  C
	Last night
	      Dm   C  Bb  C
	Last night

Verse 2:

	The room was empty as I staggered from my bed
	I could not bear the image racing through my head
	You were so real that I could feel your eagerness
	And when you raised your lips for me to kiss

	Came the dawn
	And you were gone
	You were gone, gone, gone

[repeat chorus 2X]

Coda:

	    (C)           D    C   Bb   C
	Oh, too much to dream
	Oh, too much to dream
	Too much to dream last night
	Oh, too much to dream [repeat to fade]

	[Note: the coda is in D major; listen to the rhythm guitar
	 (heavily-tremoloed part in right channel) to hear this]
