I Dreamed A Dream (From "Les Misérables") Chords

_ _ There was a time when men were kind, _ _ _ when their voices were soft, _
[Ab] _ _ _ when their words inviting. _
_ _ [Eb] _ There was a time when love was blind, [Cm] and the world was a song, _ _ [Db] _ and the soul was exciting.
_ _ [Cm] _ There was a time _ when _ _ _ _
[N] _ _ _ _ it all [Ab] went [Eb] wrong. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ I _ _ [Cm] _
_ _ _ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ [Fm] _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
dreamed a dream in time [Cm] gone _ _ by, [Eb] _ _ [Ab] _ and hope was high, and life worth living.
_ [Bb] _ _
_ _ [Eb] _ I dreamed that [D] love would never [Cm] _ _ [Bb] die. _ _
[Ab] _ I dreamed [G] that God would be [Fm] forgiving.
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
And I [Gm] was young and [Cm] _ _
unafraid.
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ And dreams [Eb] were made, _ used, [Fm] _ _
[Bb] wasted.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ There was [Gm] no ransom to be [Cm] _ [Gm] paid, _
_ _ [Ab] _ no sullen [Eb] song, no wine [Fm] untasted.
_ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ [C] But [C] the tigers [Fm] come at _ _ _ night, [C] _
_ with their voices [F] soft as thunder.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
As they tear your hope [Eb] _
apart, _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ as they turn your dream to [Eb] _
_ [Ab] shell.
_ He [Eb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _ slept [Gm] the summer by [Cm] my _ _ [Eb] _
side.
_ [Ab] He filled [Eb] my days with endless _ [Fm] wonder.
_ [Bb] _ _ [Eb] _
He took my childhood in [Cm] his [Eb] stride, _ _ _ [Ab] _ but [Bb] he was gone when autumn [Eb] _ came.
_ _ [G] _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ _ [F] And still I dream he'll come to [Dm] me, _ _
_ _ [Bb] that we will [Am] live the year [Gm] together.
[Dm] _ _ [C] _ _ [F] _
There are dreams [Dm] that cannot be, _ _
[Bb] _ _ _ and there [F] are storms we [Gm] cannot weather.
[Dm] _ _ _ [F] _ _
I _ _ [Dm] _ _ had a [F] dream my life would [Bb] be _ _ [F] _
[Gm] so _ different from [C] this, how [F] I'm living.
So different, no, from [Dm] what it _ seems.
_ [F] _ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ No, _ _ _ life [Gm] _ _ [C] has killed _ the _ dream _ _ I _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ dreamed. _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _ _
[Gm] _ _ [G] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _
