DADGAD
VERSE One
When I wake up in the morning
I know I’m just like you
Wondering what the day will bring
The ups and downs that we’ll go thru
Now, going through the motions
That’s no way to live
Life can be a celebration
When we finally choose to give
CHORUS:
I have a dream
Where I reach up to the stars
And gather all your wishes there
And help to answer every prayer
I have a dream
Where there is no better gift to give
Than help you live the life you want to live
VERSE Two
Now, underneath my skin
Yeah, I know I’m just like you
But, if we don’t share what’s in our hearts
Our lives will be untrue
All your aspirations
They mean so much to me
And I promise I’ll do all I can
To help to set them free
CHORUS:
I have a dream
Where I reach up to the stars
And gather all your wishes there
And help to answer every prayer
I have a dream
Where there is no better gift to give
Than help you live the life you want to live
BRIDGE
We shouldn’t just live inside our heads
Love has shown, there’s a better way
‘Cause in my heart I’ve found a treasure
I will share with you everyday
CHORUS
I have a dream
Where I reach up to the stars
And gather all your wishes there
And help to answer every prayer
I have a dream
Where there is no better gift to give
Than help you live a life
Than help you live the life
Than help you live a life you want to live
