       C        G         Am      G
I am giving up one of my dreams today
     C          G          Am      G
I found out I can't always get my way
        C         G          Am             G
And sometimes a dream isn't worth what you pay
         C        G         Am      G
So I'm giving up one of my dreams today
  C            G         Am          G
When we are children we look to the sky
    C        G            Am          G
We want everything, I'm afraid to ask why

    C            G       Am          G
And I saw the sparkling fish in the sea
     C             G              Am          G
I dreamed I would find one who'd swim next to me
     C            G             Am          G
And this called love and it's worth every reason
  C          G             Am             G
Love is the cool and the warmth in each season
     C            G        Am           G
But how does one love and what does one do
           C             G            Am           G
When the dream that you have doesn't want to pick you

     C  G       Am      G
But oh oh don't cry for me
       C             G            D
It's just one dream less on my shoulder
     C  G            Am         G         
And oh oh dad says giving up dreams
     C          G            D
Is just a sign I'm getting older

 C         G        Am           G
He was a stoner and I'm like a light
      C             G             Am           G
And when he would blaze I'd sing songs by his side
    C               G           Am               G
But my dream takes two strong hearts that will fight
    C            G             Am         G
And he doesn't dream, he just sleeps at night

     C  G       Am      G
But oh oh don't cry for me
       C             G            D
It's just one dream less on my shoulder
     C  G            Am         G         
And oh oh dad says giving up dreams
     C          G            D
Is just a sign I'm getting older

         C             G           Am          G
Oh they say to much smoking will change your taste
        C               G           Am          G
Maybe that's why he's kissing some other girls face
    C         G          Am     G
But I never dreamed of second place
         C          G           Am        G
So I'd rather just quit than continue to race

     C  G       Am      G
But oh oh don't cry for me
       C             G            D
It's just one dream less on my shoulder
     C  G            Am         G         
And oh oh dad says giving up dreams
     C          G            D
Is just a sign I'm getting older
    C   G        Am         G
And oh oh I am singing on stage
         C          G             D
But it doesn't mean I know much better
   G                 Am         G
Oh oh oh oh, your probably like me
      C       G         Am           G
Some days dreaming and some days a quitter

        C       G          Am     G
I am giving up one of my dreams today
  C       G            Am           G
After I held him and begged him to stay
      C        G              Am         G
And after my dream will drown out to a whisper
  C          G            Am            G     
After I've burnt all the photo booth pictures

      C       G         Am             G
And after I erased our names from the sky
            C      G        Am    G
Stopped wondering how and asking why
       C          G         Am        G
Oh I wish I had words to encourage inspire
          C             G           Am            G
But the truth is I'm ripped and I'm sad and I'm tired
        C        G             Am         G
I'm a loser in love and an abandoner of dreams
      C          G              Am       G
And today I have up the one for him, and me
