I Dreamed A Dream
Claude-Michel Schönberg
Eb Eb/D Cm Eb/Bb
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
Ab Ab/G Fm7 Bb
When hope was high and life worth living
Eb Eb/D Cm7 Eb/Bb
I dreamed that love would never die
Ab Ab/G Fm7 Bb
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
Eb Eb/D Cm Eb/Bb
Then I was young and unafraid
Ab Ab/G Fm7 Bb
And dreams were made and used and wasted
Eb Eb/D Cm7 Eb/Bb
There was no ransom to be paid
Ab Ab/G Fm7 Bb
No song unsung, no wine untasted
C C/E Fm Fm/Ab
But the tigers come at night
C C/E F F/A
With their voices soft as thunder
Bb Bb/D Ebm Ebm/Gb
As they tear your hope apart
Bb Eb Fm/Eb Eb Ab/Eb Bb
As they turn your dream to shame
Eb Eb/D Cm7 Eb/Bb
He slept a summer by my side
Ab Ab/G Fm7 Bb
He filled my days with endless wonder
Eb Eb/D Cm7 Eb/Bb
He took my childhood in his stride
Ab Bb13 Eb Eb/D Bbm6/Db C7sus4 C7
But he was gone when autumn came
F F/E Dm F/C
And still I dreamed he'll come to me
Bb Bb/A Gm7 C
That we would live the years together
F F/E Dm7 F/C
But there are dreams that cannot be
Bb Bb/A Gm7 C
And there are storms we cannot weather
F F/E Dm7
...
F/C Bb Bb/A Gm7
I had a dream my life would be
Bb/C C F
So different from this hell I'm living
F/E Dm7 F/C
So different now from what it seemed
Bb C13 C7
Now life has killed the dream
F F/E Dm7 F/A Bb C7 F
I dreamed
