F/C When I live my dream I'll take you with me, Gm/C riding on a golden horse. F/C Gm/C F/C We'll live within my castle with people there to serve you, F/C Cm7 F Gm7 C7 happy at the sound of your voice. F Gm7 C A# Maybe I'll slay a dragon for you, F Gm7 C A# or banish wicked giants from the land, F D# F A# but you will find that nothing in my dream can hurt you, Cm D# F A# Fm7 C C7 we will only love each other, as forever when I live my dream. When I live my dream, I'll forgive the things you've told me And the empty man you left behind It's a broken heart that dreams, it's a broken heart you left me Only love can live in my dream I'll wish, and the thunder clouds will vanish Wish, and the storm will fade away Wish again, and you will stand before me while the sky will paint an ouverture And trees will play the rhythm of my dream When I live my dream, please be there to meet me Let me be the one to understand When I live my dream, I'll forget the hurt you gave Then we can live in our new land Till the day my dream cascades around me I'm content to let you pass me by Till that day, you'll run to many other men But let them know it's just for now Tell them that I've got a dream And tell them you're the starring role Tell them I'm a dreaming kind of guy And I'm going to make my dream Tell them I will live my dream Tell them they can laugh at me But don't forget your date with me When I live my dream You can simplify chords by removing barre | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA#  C  Cm  C7  Cm7  D#  F  Fm  F Fm7  Gm  Gm7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
