Ebm         B                 Abm        Bb
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
Ebm           B                   Abm      Bb
When hope was high and life worth living
Ebm            B                Abm       Bb
I dreamed that love would never die
Ebm            B               Abm      Bb
I dreamed that God would be forgiving

[Verse 2]
Ebm        B            Abm     Bb
Then I was young and unafraid
Ebm             B               Ab      Bb
And dreams were made and used and wasted
Ebm         B            Abm     Bb
There was no ransom to be paid
Ebm       B             Ab       Bb
No song unsung, no wine untasted


[Verse 3]
Ebm     B              Ab    Bb
But the tigers come at night
Ebm        B              Ab     Bb
With their voices soft as thunder
Abm     Ab              Bb
As they tear your hope apart
Abm               Bb       Ebm
As they turn your dream to shame

[Verse 4]
Ebm         B            Abm    Bb
She slept a summer by my side
Ebm           B                 Abm    Bb
She filled my days with endless wonder
Ebm         B                Abm    Bb
She took my childhood in her stride
Ebm         B                Ebm
But she was gone when autumn came

[Verse 5]
Ebm         B                   Abm   Bb
And I still dream she'll come to me
Ebm          B              Abm      Bb
That we will live the years together

(Short Pause)

N.C.
But there are dreams that cannot be

And there are storms we cannot weather...


[Verse 6]
Ebm     B                  Abm    Bb
I had a dream my life would be
Ebm          B                  Abm   Bb
So different from this hell I'm living
Ebm              B            Abm    Bb
So different now from what it seemed
Abm                              Ebm
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed
