        / G - - - / D/F# - - - / C - - - / - - - - /

 

G                 D/F#          

   I close my eyes and I can see

Em                         C             

   The world that's waiting up for me

G           D/F#     C (2)

   That I call my    own

G                    D/F#          

    Through the dark, through the door

Em                 C             

    Through where no one's been before

G                 D/F#     C (2)

   But it feels like home

 

Pre-Chorus:

D/F#                       Em (1/2)  D (1/2)     C (2)

   They can say, they can say it     all sounds crazy

D/F#                       Em (1/2)  D (1/2)   C (2)

   They can say, they can say I've  lost my   mind

D/F#                      Em (1/2)  D (1/2)     C (2)

   I don't care, I don't care, so  call me    crazy

D/F#                Em (1/2)    D (1/2)     C (2)

   We can live in a world that we        design

 

Chorus:

       G (2)

'Cause every night I lie in bed

    D/F# (2)

The brightest colors fill my head

  Am (2)                          C (2)

A million dreams are keeping me awake

       G (2)

I think of what the world could be

   D/F# (2)

A vision of the one I see

   Am (2)                              C (2)

A million dreams is all it's gonna take

   N.C. (2)

A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

 

/ G - - - / D/F# - - - / Em - - - / C - - - /

 

G                 D/F#        Em          C          

  There's a house we can build  Every room inside is filled

G        D/F#        C (2)

  With things from far away

 

G                  D/F#         Em             C             

  The special things I compile   Each one there to make you smile

G        D/F#     C (2)

   On a rainy    day

 

Pre-Chorus

 

Chorus

 

Bridge:

Em            B7           G

   However big, however small

           A         C (2)

Let me be part of it all

                 G (2)

Share your dreams with me

Em                 B7              G

   You may be right, you may be wrong

                      A        C (2)

But say that you'll bring me along

                  G (2)

To the world you see

                        Am (2)

To the world I close my eyes to see

           D (3)

I close my eyes to see

 

Outro Chorus:

       G (2)

'Cause every night I lie in bed

    D/F# (2)

The brightest colors fill my head

  Am (2)                          C (2)

A million dreams are keeping me awake

(A million dreams, a million dreams)

       G (2)

I think of what the world could be

   D/F# (2)

A vision of the one I see

   Am (2)                              C (2)

A million dreams is all it's gonna take

   C (hold 2)         

A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

 

/ G - - - / D/F# - - - / Em - - - / C (hold, fermata) /

 

For the world we're gonna make
