Wake up in a dream"

    C                      F
The snow was deeper in the Eighties
C                     Am
And everybody used to play
F                  E
Outside on Santa's sleigh
E                     Am
Living dreams and holidays
      C         F
And I won't, forget those
C             Am
Tiny flashing lights
         F                  E
Plastics trees and snowball fights
E                     Am
Happy Days and Silent Nights
