I dreamed a (Eb)dream in time gone (Cm)by,
when hope was high and life worth (Fm)liv ing.
I dreamed that love would nev er (Cm)die,
I prayed that God would be for giv ing.
Then I was young (Eb)and un a fraid,
and dreams were made and used
and was ted.
There was no ran som to be paid,
no song un sung, no wine un (Fm)tas ted.
But the ti gers come at (Fm)night,
with their voic es soft as (F)thun der,
as they tear your hopes a part,
and they turn your dream to (Eb)shame.
Still I dreamed he’d come to (Dm)me,
that we would live the years to (Gm)geth er;
but there are dreams that can not be,
and there are storms we can not weath (Gm7)er.
I had a dream my life would (Bb)be
so diff ’rent from this hell I’m (F)liv ing, so diff ’rent (F)now from what it seemed,
now life has killed the dream
