intro:Am, G

Am (x02210@1)           GIn (320003@1)Visons of the dark night
I have dreamed of joy departed
But a waking dream of life and light
Has left me broken hearted

Am (x02210@1)           GThat (320003@1)dream--that holy dream
while all the world was chiding
has cheeded me as a lovely beam
a lonely spirit guiding

Am (x02210@1)           GAh (320003@1)what is not a deam by day
To him whose eyes are cast
on things around hom with a ray
turned back upon thw past?

E (022100@1)E (022100@1)             AmTake (x02210@1)this kiss upon the brow
and, in parting from you now
thus much let me avow
Eyou (022100@1)are not wrong who deem
that my days have been a drem;
yet if hope has flown away
in a night or in a day
Am (x02210@1)             Ein (022100@1)a vision or in none,
is it therefore the less gone?
all that we see or seen
is but a dream within a dream.

Am (x02210@1)             Gwhat (320003@1)though that light, through storm and noght
so trembled from afar
what could there be more purely bright
in truth's day-star?
Am (x02210@1)                 GThat (320003@1)holy dream---that holy dream
while all the world was chiding
has cheered me as a lovely beam
a lonely spirit guiding.
