Well well well 
 
I feel just like I'm fallin in love

I got good luck 
 
In certain situations

And then at time 
 
I'm so weak from loving 
   A 
I couldn't even carry a tune 
              G 
But now I'm back 
 
Oh yes I am

Believe me when I tell you

Nobody ever dies in their dreams

Verse 3:
A 
Well well well 
 
Engine room to bombardier

Is this a dream 
 
I died and went to Heaven

She's enough to make you 
              G 
Cry in your beer 
 
How can a good thing 
A 
7 come 11 
 
Slip into a fare thee well

And how can one man's 
 
Little bit of Heaven 
 A 
Turn into another man's Hell
