They say if I get paid then I’ll be fine,
but I can’t get by on an y thing but you.
I know if I smoke, then I might die;
but I won’t die for an y thing but you.
I found a shoot ing star in the pock et of my jeans.
I won the lot ter y and built a time ma chine.
I got ev ’ry thing, and ev ’ry thing is mine to lose,
but I don’t want an y thing but you.
Ooh,
ooh,
ooh.
A card board box of make be lieve,
emp ty pock et full of dreams, and you are ev ’ry thing I need.
I nev er found a shoot ing star and there’s holes in my jeans.
I did n’t win the lot ter y or build a time ma chine.
I nev er had much at all, but I’ve still got ev ’ry thing to lose
’cause I don’t want an y thing but you.
This page shows “Pocket Full Of Dreams” by Hedley in our color-coded kid songbook view — every note is colored by pitch (red C, orange D, yellow E, green F, blue G, purple A, pink B) and the lyrics sit directly under each note, so children can sing along while they play. The song is in the key of C at 120 BPM, a slightly more challenging arrangement — practice each phrase slowly first.
