(Capo 2) 
 
Intro D - A - G - A - D - A - G 
 
G                 D       A - G 
Funny thing about dreamers, 
G                      A     D     A - G 
When the dreams is in their sights, 
G            A            D    A - G 
Just to get where they're goin' 
G                                A       D     A - G - A - D - A -  
They have to leave a lot of good things behind,  
G                        D      A - G 
Guess you could call me a dreamer, 
G                D            A - G 
And I've seen it all come true, 
G                      A       D    A - G 
So I smile when I need to look happy 
G                     A       D  A - G 
Do all the things they tell me to  
 
(bridge) 
E4                G    
Yeah, I'm a big self made man 
E4                G     A 
And a fool who can't under-stand 
D           A      G      A 
I thought I needed fortune 
  D         A      G   A 
I thought I needed fame 
     D     A          G 
But, all I need is to hear you 
A       D     A - G - A - D - A - G 
Whisper my name  

If I could only make the future 

An extension of my past 

I'd take these broken memories 

And make those moments last 
 
(bridge) 
 
Now that my ship has come 

I wonder what have I done 
 
(Chorus) 
D           A      G      A 
I thought I needed fortune 
  D         A      G   A 
I thought I needed fame 
     D     A          G 
But, all I need is to hear you 
A       D     A - G - A - D - A - G 
Whisper my name 
 
(lead chords 
A - G - A - D - A - G ) 
(Chorus) 
 

D           A      G      A 
I thought I needed fortune 
  D         A      G   A 
I thought I needed fame 
     D     A          G 
But, all I need is to hear you 
A       D     A - G - A - D - A - G           A - D 
Whisper my name      Oh yea       Whisper baby
