As I (G)walk through the world I find a round me,

some thing new

yet fa mil iar’s (G7)in the air.

I (D)feel it ev ’ry (Bm7)where.

Like a child’s love eyes

on a (Gmaj7)Christ mas night,

I’m (Am7)look in’ at you now,

It’s a new day for those good old dreams;

one by one it seems they’re com in’ (Emaj7)true.

Here’s a morn in’ that my (F#m7)heart had seen,

here’s a morn in’ that just (E)had to come through.

Same old stage, but what a (F#m7)change of scene.

No more (B7)dark ho ri zons, on ly (G#m)blue.

It’s a new day for those good old dreams.

All my life I dreamed of (G)lov ing (Am)you.

You’re a spark (E)you.

It’s a new day for those good old dreams,

and it’s all be cause of (E)you.
