[Verse]
D              D/C#              Bm   Bm/A      
I dreamed a dream in time gone by
G                G/F#       
When hope was high
               Em7     A    
And life worth living
D                 D/C#            Bm7      Bm/A
I dreamed that love would never die
G                 G/F#             Em7           A
I dreamed that God would be forgiving
D              D/C#            Bm           Bm/A
Then I was young and unafraid
G                  G/F#                  Em7      A    
And dreams were made and used and wasted
D               D/C#         Bm7              Bm/A
There was no ransom to be paid
G             G/F#           Em7              A 
No song unsung, no wine untasted
   
[Chorus]   
B                         Em
But the tigers come at night
B              B7             E           
With their voices soft as thunder
A                          Dm
As they tear your hope apart
A                               D   Em/D   F#m/D   G/D   A           
And they turn your dream to shame

[Verse]   
D              D/C#        Bm    Bm/A       
He slept a summer by my side
G                G/F#             Em7       A
He filled my days with endless wonder
D              D/C#            Bm7        Bm/A
He took my childhood in his stride
G             Asus       A      D    A/C#   Am/C   B
But he was gone when autumn came

E              E/D#                C#m7        C#m/B
And still I dream he'll come to me
A                A/G#            F#m7         B
That we will live the years together
E                E/D#               C#m7       C#m/B
But there are dreams that cannot be
A                 A/G#            F#m7         B   E  E/D#
And there are storms we cannot weather

[Bridge]   
C#m7        C#m/B              A    A/G#         
I had a dream my life would be
F#m7            B                  E
So different from this hell I'm living
             E/D#             C#m7            C#m/B
So different now from what it seemed
A               B                  E                 
Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
