It's a long long way  to Canada it's a long way from snow chains
                                   Abm    F#       C# B C# B C# B C#
Donkey vendors slicing coconut  no parkas to their name

Black babies covered in baking flour the cook's got a carnival song

Lay down someplace shady with dreamland coming on

                                                Abm         F#
And they claim the beach and concessions in the name of the sun tan

slaves
   F#                 E                Abm         F#

                                       Abm  F#         C# B C#
And I laid down thinking national with dreamland coming on

Goodtime Mary and the lady soldiers  all dressed up to follow the
drums

Mary in a feather hulahoop misfortune
       Abm     F#           C# B  C# B C#  B  C#
With a rose on her big game gun
      F#               E                   Abm                F#
All saints and sinners shinning heed those trumpets all night long
                                  Abm  F#          C# B C#
Propped up on the samba beat with dreamland coming on

 Dream on dreamland dreamland dreamland dream

Tar baby and the great white wonder talking over a glass of rum
                             Abm           F#        C# B C# B C#
Burnin on the inside with a  knowledge of things  to come
         F#              E                Abm             F#
There's  gambling on the terrace midnight rambling on the lawn
                                     Abm   F#          C# B C#
As they lean towards temptation with dreamland coming on
C#        E                   Abm F#      C# B  C# B  C# B  C#
 Dream on dreamland dreamland dreamland dream
     F#                   E           Abm                 F#
In a plane flying back to winter with shoe full of tropic sand

There comes a lady draped in a foreign flag
       Abm         F#        C# B C# B C# B C#
On the arms of her Marlboro man
    F#                      E             Abm                F#
The hawks howls in New York City six foot drifts on Myrtle's lawn
                                            Abm  F#          C# B C#
As they push the recliner buttons down with dreamland coming on
C#         E                  Abm F#      C# B  C# B  C# B  C#
Dreamland dreamland dreamland dream
