Pretty much the same as the earlier one, but in an easier to read format, plus lyrics.
In Dmy dreams
I see myself hitting a Abaseball
In a green field somewhere near a Bmfreeway 
I'm all tan and smiling and rDunning from 3rd Abase
And it's Dhot and
The kids keep on playing the Adriving game
And they're singing the same godBmdamn refrain
And the Dsky is a blueish Agrey.
DAnd its become Ajust like a chemical sBmtress
Tracing the linDes in my face foBmr
Something more Dbeautiful than is Bmthere
I've barely Abeen gone.
In Dmy dreams
I see you at the foot of some mAountains.
And we're taking some pictures or Bmsomething
And we'd Dbetter hurry Aup
And it's Dlate and
The sun keeps on shooting through pAine trees
And the grass stains are wet on your Bmnew jeans
And we'd Dbetter hurry Aup
DAnd its become Ajust like a terrible mBmess
Tracing the linDes in my face foBmr
Something more Dbeautiful than is Bmthere
The crowds keep me coAming back, cheering.
In Dmy AdreBmamsD  A  
I see you asleep on a tAwin bed
The covers pulled up over yBmour head
Am I aDsleep or aAwake?
And it'Ds morning
And the captain is playing the Aradio
And hes just put the paint on his Bmnew boat
Am I aDsleep or aAwake?
And it jDust feels good when you're wAaking up
And it jDust feels good when you're nAext to me
And it jDust feels good when you're cAoming home
And it jDust feels good when it's wakAing up
DAnd I've become Ajust like a chemical Bmstress
Tracing the lDines of my face Bmfor
Something more bDeautiful than is Bmthere
I've barely bAeen gone
Dand I'm not a Afailure I Bmswear
I wish you could Dsee it from over tBmhere
I've got a Dlot over here without Bmyou
I've barely Abeen gone
Bmgone

In my dreams

I see myself hitting a baseball

In a green field somewhere near a freeway

D A

I'm all tan and smiling and running from 3rd base

And it's hot and

The kids keep on playing the driving game

And they're singing the same goddamn refrain

D A

And the sky is a blueish grey.

D A Bm

And its become just like a chemical stress

D Bm

Tracing the lines in my face for

D Bm

Something more beautiful than is there

I've barely been gone.

In my dreams

I see you at the foot of some mountains.

And we're taking some pictures or something

D A

And we'd better hurry up

And it's late and

The sun keeps on shooting through pine trees

And the grass stains are wet on your new jeans

D A

And we'd better hurry up

D A Bm

And its become just like a terrible mess

D Bm

Tracing the lines in my face for

D Bm

Something more beautiful than is there

The crowds keep me coming back, cheering.

D A Bm D A

In my dreams

I see you asleep on a twin bed

The covers pulled up over your head

D A

Am I asleep or awake?

And it's morning

And the captain is playing the radio

And hes just put the paint on his new boat

D A

Am I asleep or awake?

D A

And it just feels good when you're waking up

D A

And it just feels good when you're next to me

D A

And it just feels good when you're coming home

D A

And it just feels good when it's waking up

D A Bm

And I've become just like a chemical stress

D Bm

Tracing the lines of my face for

D Bm

Something more beautiful than is there

I've barely been gone

D A Bm

and I'm not a failure I swear

D Bm

I wish you could see it from over there

D Bm

I've got a lot over here without you

I've barely been gone

gone
