     F           F6             Fm7         F6
As a child I was known for make-believing
     F                 Gm
All alone I created fantasies
     Gm                               C7
As I grew people called it self-deceiving
  C7/C#        C7                 F   F6   Fm7 - F6
But my heart helped me hold the memories


      F                F6             Fm7       F6
As, I walk through the world, I find around me
          F                           Bb
Something new, yet familiar's in the air
   C            Am   D7         Gm        C7       Am        D7
I feel it everywhere, like a child's eyes on a Christmas night
      Gm               C                        D      Dm7 D
I'm lookin' at you now, finding answers to my prayers


                      Em                  A
It's a new day for those good old dreams
                             D           D7
One by one it seems they're comin' true
                            Em            A
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
                             D           
Here's the morning that just had to come through


                            Em            A
Same old stage but what a change of scene
                        D         D7
No more dark horizons, only blue
                          Em              A
It's a new day for those good old dreams
                          F          F6  Fm7 - F6
All my life I dreamed of lovin' you


          F         F6             Fm7   F6
You're a spark of a long forgotten fire
          F                         Gm   C7
You're a touch of a slowly growing wind
          Gm                             C7
You're a taste of the ever-changing seasons
         C7/C#             C7                F  F6  Fm7  F6
Telling me there are some things that don't end


         F             F6           Fm7       F6
We have left all the darkness far behind us
           F                            Bb
All those hopes that we held along the way
      C               Am - D7        Gm           C7        Am        D7
Have made it to this day, like an old love song gone for much too long
       Gm            C7                    D    Dm7 - D
You hear it once again and it carries you away

                          Em            A7
It's a new day for those good old dreams
                              D          D7
One by one it seems they're comin' true
                           Em            A7
Here's the morning that my heart had seen
                             D
Here's the morning that just had to come through


                           Em             A7
Same old stage but what a change of scene
                        D        D7
No more dark horizons, only blue
                          Em             A7
It's a new day for those good old dreams
                             D   - D7  - B7
All my life I dreamed of you
                          Em             A
It's a new day for those good old dreams 
                          D  - ( F - F6 - Fm7 - F6 ) 
And it's all because of you
