This song is very ethereal and magical. It's one of my favorite songs.
-tremelo/echo/chorus effects are a must!

Use the different variations of the A and B chords where suitable (A~ & B~)
(Guitar I,II - chord strums with slight picking)
E A/A~ B/B~
Oh my life is changing everyday
E
Every possible way
E A/A~ B/B~
though my dreams, it's never quite as it seems
E
Never quite as it seems


(Guitar I - picking of Riff A)
E A/A~
I know I felt like this before
B/B~
But now I'm feeling it even more
E
Because it came from you


(Guitar I,II - chord strums with slight picking)
E A/A~
Then I open up and see
B/B~
The person fumbling here is me
E
A different way to be


[O'Riordan chanting part]
Chords : G C G C
(Guitar I - play single chord strums with tremelo effect)


(Guitar I,II - chord strums with slight picking)
I want more, impossible to ignore
Impossible to ignore
They'll come true, impossible not to do
Impossible not to do

(Guitar I - picking of Riff A)
Now I tell you openly
You have my heart so don't hurt me
For what I couldn't find

(Guitar I,II - chord strums with slight picking)
Talk to me amazing mind
So understanding and so kind
You're everything to me

Oh my life is changing everyday
Every possible way
Though my dreams, it's never quite as it seems
'cause you're a dream to me
Dream to me
