A5                  C5               G5          F5
I wonder if there's dreamers on the streets of Tripoli 
A5           C5          F5               G5
Fighting for freedom , a better place to be 
A5                    C5                      G5               F5
I wonder if there's a young man not far off the same as me
A5           C5             F5         G5
Wielding his ideas for others to see


A5
There's a roof on my head
        C5
And I'm well fed
        F5                          A5
And the sun tomorrow I'm likely to see
                           C5         G5
So spare a thought for the people of Tripoli
          F5                   G5          A5
For their dreams are far from ... I sing


A5              C5             G5                   F5
Controlled by a man we've all known and seen before
A5             C5               G5                   F5
Killing on his doorstep as the blood runs down his doors
A5            C5                G5                   F5
Poisoning his people with words spun from the west
     A5                  C5                  G5                 F5      
He's giving them arms to fight while in his past head down he rests


There's a roof on my head
And I'm well fed
And the sun tomorrow I'm likely to see
So spare a thought for the people of Tripoli
For their dreams are far from ...  I sing

The disaster's on the news as the battle rages on
Limbs are pulled from the rubble and all I can do is look on
Before I stop my day, before I'm back in ...
I ask could we do more if we didn't ...

Well they're sending ships and planes and a no-fly zone is arranged
As the government plays Risk once again
And I wonder if there's dreamers on the streets of Tripoli
Fighting for their freedom , a better place to be

There's a roof on my head
And I'm well fed
And the sun tomorrow I'm likely to see
So spare a thought for the people of Tripoli
For their dreams are far from ... I sing


A5
There's a roof on my head
         C5
And I'm well fed
         F5                         A5
And the sun tomorrow I'm likely to see
                           C5               G5
So spare a thought should daily passes you by
        F5                     G5
And the little things get you down
        F5                     G5
Oh the little things pass you by
        F5                         G5
And the little things feel like a thorn
        A5
In your sight


A5                  C5                G5          F5
I wonder if there's dreamers on the streets of Tripoli 
A5           C5              F5               G5
Fighting for freedom , a better place to be 
A5                  C5                    G5              F5
I wonder if there's a young man not far off the same as me
A5           C5              G5                A5
Wielding his ideas I wonder if he'll live to see
