Roger McGuinn Dreamland written by Joni Mitchell

[C#] [B] [C#] [B] [C#] [B] [C#] [B] [C#]
It's a [F#]long long way to [E]Canada it's a [Abm]long way from snow [F#]chains
Donkey vendors slicing coconut no [Abm]parkas [F#]to their [C#]nam[B]e[C#][B][C#][B][C#]
Black [F#]babies covered in [E]baking flour the [Abm]cook's got a carnival [F#]song
Lay down someplace shady with [Abm]dreaml[F#]and coming [C#]on[B][C#]
[C#] Dream on [E]dreamland dreamland [Abm]drea[F#]mland dr[C#]eam[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
Walter [F#]Raleigh Chris [E]Columbus come a [Abm]marchin out of the [F#]waves
And they claim the beach and concessions in the [Abm]name of the [F#]sun tan
[C#]sla[B]ve[C#]s[B][C#][B][C#]
I w[F#]rapped their flag a[E]round me like an [Abm]Errol Flynn [F#]sarong
And I laid down thinking national with [Abm]dream[F#]land coming[C#] on[B][C#]
[C#] Dream on [E]dreamland dreamland [Abm]drea[F#]mland dr[C#]eam[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
Goodtime [F#]Mary and the [E]lady soldiers all [Abm]dressed up to follow the[F#]
drums

Mary in a feather hulahoop misfortune
With a [Abm]rose on [F#]her big game [C#]gun[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
All sa[F#]ints and sinners [E]shinning heed those [Abm]trumpets all night [F#]long
Propped up on the samba beat with [Abm]dream[F#]land coming [C#]on[B][C#]
[C#] Dream on [E]dreamland dreamland [Abm]drea[F#]mland dr[C#]eam[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
Tar [F#]baby and the [E]great white wonder talking [Abm]over a glass of [F#]rum
Burnin on the inside with a [Abm]knowledge of t[F#]hings to [C#]com[B]e[C#][B][C#]
There's [F#]gambling on the [E]terrace midnight [Abm]rambling on the [F#]lawn
As they lean towards temptation with [Abm]dreaml[F#]and coming o[C#]n[B][C#]
[C#] Dream on [E]dreamland dreamland [Abm]drea[F#]mland dr[C#]eam[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
In a [F#]plane flying back to [E]winter with [Abm]shoe full of tropic [F#]sand

There comes a lady draped in a foreign flag
On the [Abm]arms of her [F#]Marlboro m[C#]an[B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
The [F#]hawks howls in New York [E]City six foot [Abm]drifts on Myrtle's [F#]lawn
As they push the recliner buttons down with [Abm]dream[F#]land coming [C#]on[B][C#]
[C#]Dreamland d[E]reamland dreamland [Abm]drea[F#]m[C#][B][C#][B][C#][B][C#]
