I Dreamed There was a Fountain
John Mark McMillan

Capo 1

VERSE 1:

D (xx0232@1) I dreamed there was a fountain
Bm (x24432@1) I dreamed there was a vein
G (320003@1) That overcame the mountain
D (xx0232@1) Like a condescending rain

VERSE 2:
With love that's bigger than Los Angeles
With a speed that overcame the pain
Of a thousand left hand promises
Made by thieves with their good names

PRE CHORUS:

Bm (x24432@1) There came a song upon a west wind
D (xx0232@1)
  That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
G (320003@1)  Though ignorant inside their blessings
        A (x02220@1)  But it broke their hearts, and they sang

CHORUS:

G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this water
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this blood
G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)         A (x02220@1)                  
  Come and drink this love
                         Bm (x24432@1) that you could not afford

VERSE 3:
I stood and looked across the waters
Of a great Atlantic sea
I saw my sons I saw my daughters
It's like they had no tears to weep

PRE CHORUS:
There came a song upon a west wind
That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
Though ignorant inside their blessings
But it broke their hearts, and they sang

CHORUS:
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this water
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this blood
G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)         A (x02220@1)                  
  Come and drink this love that you could not afford
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this water
G (320003@1)    D (xx0232@1)        A (x02220@1) Come drink this blood
G (320003@1)        D (xx0232@1)         A (x02220@1)                  
  Come and drink this love
                         Bm (x24432@1) that you could not afford
