 (Intro)
 
 
 (1st phrase)
  Stars shining  bright above  you
   Night breezes  seem to whisper  "I love you"
   Birds singing in a sycamore  tree
  Dream  a little dream  of me
   Say Nightie-night  and kiss  me
   Just hold  me tight and tell  me you'll miss me
   While I'm alone and blue  as can be
  Dream  a little dream  of me
 (refrain)
   Stars fading  but I  linger on,  dear,
   Still craving  your kiss
   I'm longing  to linger  till dawn,  dear,
   Just saying this:
 (2nd phrase)
   Sweet dreams  till sunbeams find  you
   Sweet dreams  that leave all worries  (far) behind you
   But in your dreams whatever  they('ll) be
 Dream  a little dream  of me

 - Use G6 instead of G#7 for more jazzy atmosphere.
 Both G6 and G#7 works.
 One of them is easier depending on your play style.
 It's your choice to use G6 instead of G#7 to give more jazzy atmosphere.
 I recommend to try both finger positions below.
