The Dream Lives On

• G

Capo 1st Fret
Intro: G     C    D    C D

C           D              G 
I refuse to say goodbye to you
C            D            G
Because you’ll never leave
C                     D             
You gave more to the world
G         G/F#       Em7
Than the world could receive
C            D              G
C                          D              
You portrayed the answer
G             G/F#         Em7
And the world closed its eyes
C             D             G
But I want you to know
              Am            C
That the dream lives on
          Am               C     D
Yeah the dream lives on

G
The dream that your life stood for
C
Is a cloud up in the sky
D
It follows us and is always here
C                             D
And it imagines when we can’t imagine why
G
And even though you’re gone 
C
Your journey is far from done
D
You only got into another car
C                      D
And your new life has just begun

C                       D           G
And everything happens for a reason
C              D           G
But I find myself reasoning
C                  D               
You deserve more peace
G       G/F#  Em7
Than anyone
C                        D          
And you spent you whole youth building
G         G/F#        Em7
The dream held in your eyes
C       D            G
But I want you to know
Am                C 
The dream lives on
Am                 C        D
Yes the dream lives on


G
The dream that your life stood for
C
Is a cloud up in the sky
D
It follows us and is always here
C
And it imagines when we cant imagine why
G
And even though you’re gone 
C
Your journey is far from done
D
You only got into another car
C                                      D
And your new life has begun

C     D
Oh John 
C    D
Oh John 
C      D         G  D
The Dream was over
C     D          G    D
It was clear to see
C     D    G   G/F#    Em7
But you weren’t “The Dream”
C             D      
And neither was she

G
The dream that your life stood for
C
Is a cloud up in the sky
D
It follows us and is always here
C
And it imagines when we cant imagine why
G
And even though you’re gone 
C
Your journey is far from done

G         C     D       C   D

C           D              G 
The press had called her ugly
C           D              G 
And spit shit in your face 
C          D                 G
When all you asked is if love
G             G/F#         Em7
 Could take the place of hate
C              D        G
I am still imagining and 
G           G/F#         Em7
You’re not the only one
C    D         G
Nor will you ever be
C      D           G
But I want you to know
Am                 C
After you have showed
Am          C
And as time grows 
        Am         C   D
The dream lives on
G
