I dreamed a dream in time gone by, when hope was high, and life worth living,
CM7 AmAF7F7Dm7C7
I dreamed that love would never die, I dreamed that God would be forgiving.
CM7 AmAF7F7Dm7C7
Then I was young and una-fraid, and dreams were made and used and wasted,
CM7Am7AFF7Dm7A
There was no ransom to be paid, no song unsung, no wine untasted
DmAA7DG
But the tigers come at night, with their voices soft as thunder,
CmGCDmEmFGC
As they tear your hope apart, and they turn your dream to sha..a..a..a..a..me.
AmAF7F7Dm7C7
He slept a summer by my side, he filled my days with endless wonder,
Am7AFAsusGCGGmAD
He took my childhood in his stride, but he was gone when autumn ca..a..a..a..a..me.
D7Bm7BGG7Em7D
And still I dream he'll come to me, that we will live the years together,
D7Bm7Gm
But there are dreams that cannot be;
G7Em7Bm7
And there are storms we cannot weather.
BmGGEm7AD
I had a dream my life would be, so different from this hell I'm living,
D7Bm7BGAD
So different now from what it seemed, now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
