She laughing rolling on the ground
C C# Dm
Smilin' as she pulls you down
F C
That's the way she feels about you
If your dreams can wake you screaming in the night
She can touch your face and take away your fright
Like a tree in the meadow wind
She will bend to take you in
Makes no difference where you been
That's the way she feels about you
(I don't have chords for this part! - mail me if ya can help)
if you wake up screaming
scared from what you're dreaming
you know she is there
she can share
you know that she cares about you
In the morning wake up laughing with the day
She will smile and ask you with her eyes to stay
Like the sunshine will warm the sand
She will touch you with her hand
And the touching makes you understand
That's the way she feels about you

For C#, I just slide the C chord up one fret [x 4 3 0 2 0]
For the F chord in last line ("That's the way she feels..."), see
if you prefer substituting Dm7 [x 0 0 2 1 1]
