Oh! Wot a Dream -- Kevin Ayers (from Bananamour)
A really easy, really jaunty tune; it was written in tribute to a meeting Kevin had with Syd Barrett, but
it also makes quite a nice "love song" of sorts.
Standard tuning, 4/4
INTRO:
C F C F C F G G
CYou are the most extraordinary Fperson
CYou write the most peculiar kind of Ftunes.
CI met you floating while FI was boating
  GOne afternoon.
CWasn't it the most amazing Fmeeting?
CSurrounded by those monsters from the Fdeep
CYou started telling me a funny Fstory
  GAnd I fell asleep.
CHORUS (Staccato palm mute on the beat)
AmOh wot a dream!
Oh wot a dream that Cwas!
CWe went for a ride across the Fcountry
CI was hungry after travelling so Ffar
CYou offered me your one and only Fsandwich, I said 
 G"How kind you are".
CHORUS x2
CWasn't it the most amazing Ffeeling?
C'Cause everything was really as it Fseemed
CYou are the most extraordinary Fperson
  GI've ever dreamed
CHORUS x2
