I have GofAten Ddreamed,
of a Gfar Aoff Dplace.
Where a GherAo’s Bm7welcome,
would be Gmaj7waiting for Asusme. A
Where the Gcrowds Awill Dcheer,
when they Gsee Amy Bmface,
and a Gvoice F#keeps Bmsaying,
“D/AThis is Gwhere I’m meant to Asusbe.” A
I’ll be D9/F#there someEm/Gday,
D/AI can go the Adistance. A/G
I will D9/F#find my way, Em/G
D/Aif I can be Astrong. A/G
I know D9/F#every Gmile,
will be Bm7worth my Em7while.
When I Ggo Athe DdistA/C#ance,
BmI’ll D/Abe Gmaj7right where G/AI beDlong.
A/D G/D
D A/D G/D
Down an GunAknown Droad,
to emGbrace Amy Dfate.
Though that Groad Amay Bm7wander,
it will Gmaj7lead me to Asusyou. A
And a GthouAsand Dyears,
would be Gworth Athe Bmwait.
It might Gtake F#a Bmlifetime,
D/Abut someGhow I’ll see it Asusthrough. A
And I D9/F#won’t look Em/Gback,
D/AI can go the Adistance. A/G
And I’ll D9/F#stay on Em/Gtrack,
no I D/Awon’t accept deAfeat. A/G
It’s an D9/F#uphill Gslope,
but I Bm7won’t lose Em7hope.
Till I Ggo Athe DdisA/C#tance,
Bmand D/Amy Gmaj7journey Asusis A comDplete. A/D G/D
D A/D G/D
But to Flook beyond the Bb/Dglory is the C/Ehardest A/C#part
For a Dadd2hero’s strength is Gmeasured by his F#/A#heart

D/A G/A A7
Like a D9/F#shooting star, Em/G
D/AI will go the Adistance. G
I will D9/F#search the Em/Gworld,
D/AI will face its Aharms. G
D9/F#I don’t care how E/G#far,
F#/A#I can go the Bmdistance.
Till I Gfind Amy DheA/C#ro’s BmwelD/Acome
wGmaj7aiting Asusin yAour D5arms.
Asus I will D9/F#search the Gmaj7world,
I will Bm7face its Emadd4harms.
Till I fGind Amy DheA/C#ro’s BmwelD/Acome.
Gwaiting in A7sus your G/Barms
