Tom: D

Intro: D  Em  F#m  G  D  A  D 

            D         Em     F#m    G
There are dreams that sail away to sea
      D                  C  A
and dreams that stay at home
            D        Em     F#m   G
There are dreams in need of company
 D          A     D
some that stand alone
            Bm        F#m     G        D
There are dreams that stay inside all day
     G     D       A
and never see the light
         Bm        Bm/A   Bm/G#     G
and if dreams come true I swear to you,
      Em       A     D
I'll dream of you tonight
        D     Em       F#m    G
In the corner bar, the local star
     D               C  A
destroys a passing chord
    D      Em      F#m    G
He sits behind the mason jar
      D        A     D
and dreams of his reward
        Bm       F#m       G          D
Then he takes a break, he counts his take --
   G      D      A
a dollar buys a beer
   Bm     Bm/A   Bm/G#    G
A quarter of his life is gone
 Em        A     D
What's he doing here?
     C                           D
Now times are hard, the old backyard
    G    D/F#   Em
is buried in cement
    Bm7    Bm7/A  Bm7/G#   F#m
The people seem afraid to dream
     Em                  A
and dreams don't cost a cent 

Instrumental: 1st four lines of verse chords, then...


        Bm         Bm/A    Bm/G#    Gm
and if dreams come true, I swear to you
      Em       A      D
I'll dream of you tonight
