Lyrics

A (Fmaj7)mil lion old sol diers will fade (Em7)a way,

but a (Dm7)dream goes on for ev (Am)er.

I’m (Gm7)left stand ing here; I got noth (Fmaj7)ing to say.

All is (Dm7)si lent with in my dream.

A (Fmaj7)thou sand true loves will (Em7)live and die,

but a (Dm7)dream lives on for ev (Am)er.

The (Gm7)days and the years will go (Fmaj7)streak ing by,

but the (Dm7)time has stopped in my dream.

We (Gm7)all have our ev (C7)’ry day hopes and fears,

and you’ll (Dm7)find no ex cep (F)tion in me.

But (Gm7)that does n’t get (C7)me through a sea (Fmaj7)of tears

o ver (G)life’s big gest (A7)trag e dy.

You’re (Fmaj7)so long a go and so far (Em7)a way,

but my (Dm7)dream lives on for ev er.

I (Gm7)guess I be lieve that I’ll see (Fmaj7)you one day,

for with (Dm7)out it there is no dream.

You’re (Fmaj7)so far a way and so long a (Em7)go,

but my (Dm7)dream lives (E7)on for ev (Am)er.

And (Gm7)how much I loved you, you’ll nev (Fmaj7)er know

till you (Dm7)join me with in my dream.

And (Gm7)how much I loved (C7)you, you’ll nev (Fmaj7)er know

till you (Dm7)join me with in my dream.
