  			Intro: E-F#-Eb-G#m-G#-C#-B F#-B 

B                    E       D#-C#m   
I have always been a dreamer 
C#m      F#            B 
Followed visions of my own 
G#m   C#m       F# 
I was born to belong         
       Eb/F#       E   
To the lines of a song 
    C#m          F#   B              
And make then my home 

B                  E      D#/E - C#m 
I believe in happy endings              
            F#           B  G#m 
Though I've only known a few 
       C#m          F#      
For as rare as they are         
       Eb/F#           E 
Like a bright falling star    
  C#m          F#             
I found one in you 

B 
Sometimes 
        Fdim/B            Bbm 
All the world can seem so friendless  
Eb                    G#m 
And the road ahead so endless 
        C#             F# F#7 
And the dream so far away (sometimes) 
B                  Fdim/B       Bbm 
Sometimes when I'm almost to surrender 
       Eb           G#m 
Then I stop and I remember 
       C#             F#                 
I have you to save my day 

B             E    -D# -C#m 
Often my imagination 
C#m       F#            B 
Has me reaching out too far 
 G#m   C#            F#      
When I fell you were there 
          Eb/F#       E 
With your hand in the air 
     C#m          F#                 
You knew from the start 

B               Fdim              Bbm 
Sometimes after all you've done to save me 
         Eb              G#m 
Thru the love you freely gave me 
       C#            F#     F#7 
Every step along the way (sometimes) 
B                Fdim            Bbm                  
Sometimes people ask what keeps me going 
       Eb                   G#m 
And in truth, it comes from knowing 
       C#              F# 
I have you to save my day 

B                 (Bb)            F# 
Sometimes feeling helpless when I held you 
        Eb                  G#m 
Wishing words would come to tell you 
       C#             F# - B - F# 
I have you to save my day
