Strum
D-DU-UDU
Last  night in the middle  of a dream I  started thinking bout Russian
Hill
 And Ferlinghetti with his Coney Island mind
And  you and me with some  time to fill
We  ate in Chinatown we  rode the cable car
We  did what tourists always do
But  in the dream you  were a movie star and  I was someone too
 Was that the two of us in  love why  did it end so soon
I  don't believe in fallin  out of love I  never met the man  in the moon
If  it's so hard to find  the key it's  not the singer it's the tune
Sun  high in the California  sky
We  walked around the beach around Monterey
 True confessions in a Sausalito  bar the windows
Shinning  across the bay
 The age of innocence and searching  in the dark
For  what we'd never seen
 And so we could taste the sweetness  of our lives in  bitter mescaline
 Was that the two of us in love why  did it end so soon
I  don't believe in fallin  out of love I  never met the man  in the moon
If  it's so hard to find  the key it's  not the singer it's the tune
