Tom : Am
C/E F F#dim7
[Intro]
(First chord 2 measures, others 1 each)
C/G Am F C/G Dm7/G
[Verse]
G C F/A Em
While in these days of quiet desperation
E7 Am Am7/G D/F#
As I wander through the world in which I live
D F G Am
I search everywhere for some new inspiration
Am7/G D/F# D Dm7/G
But it's more than cold reality can give
G C F/A Em
If I need a cause for celebration
E7 Am Am7/G D/F#
Or a comfort I can use to ease my mind
D F G Am
I rely on my imagination
Am7/G D/F# D Dm7/G
And I dream of an imaginary time
[Chorus]
G C Em7 F G
Oh oh, and I know that everybody has a dream
C Em7 F G C Em7 F
Everybody has a dream, everybody has a dream
Em Am F Em
And this is my dream, my own
E7 Am F Em
Just to be at home
E7 Am F Em
and to be all alone
[Próxima Parte]
C/E Dm7/G
with you
[Verse]
G C F/A Em
If I believe in all the words I'm saying
E7 Am Am7/G D/F#
And if a word from you can bring a better day
D F G Am
Then all I have are these games that I've been playing
Am7/G D/F# D Dm7/G
To keep my hope from crumbling away
G C F/A Em
So let me lie and let me go on sleeping
E7 Am Am7/G D/F#
And I will lose myself in palaces of sand
D F G Am
And all the fantasies that I will be keeping
Am7/G D/F# D Dm7/G G
Will make the empty hours easier, easier to stand
[Chorus]
G C Em7 F
And I know that everybody has a dream
[Próxima Parte]
C/E Dm7/G
all alone with you
Dm7/G G
Oh, oh, with you
G C Em7 F C Em7 F
I know that everybody has a dream, oh oh, everybody has a dream
C Em7 F
I know that everybody has a dream, everybody
C Em7 F
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody, everybody, everybody has
C Em7 F
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream, I know that
C Em7 F
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody
C Em7 F
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream
C Em7 F C Em7 F
(Everybody has a dream) Everybody has a dream, everybody has
(Everybody has a dream
