Am 
God must think he's God or something 
G               F 
Lording it over us 
G                F 
Seems to like to make us feel 
C 
Ridiculous 
Am             
Gives us just one life then lets us 
G              F  
Think it's not enough 
G                  F             Eb D 
Where can you get a better deal 

            Gm    C   Gm   C        
But we can dream 
          D        Ebmaj7 
Or we can work and scheme and 
F                Eb 
Make it go much too long 
              Gm    C   Gm   C   
And I could scream 
          D        Ebmaj7 
But it don't work and dreams are 
F                Eb 
Maybe where God came from 

So I'll 
Gm                      C 
Keep on dreaming till I get it right 
Gm              C             N/C 
Even if I never get it right

Am 
God just made himself the master 
G         F 
Of the Universe 
G            F                   C 
Made us into black and white and his and hers 
Am                 
Gave us just two eyes but what we 
G             F 
See is just a blur 
G              F             Eb  D 
But we get to sleep at night 

               Gm   C  Gm  C 
And we get to dream 
            D       Ebmaj7 
Or we can work and scheme and 
F                   Eb 
Make it go much too long 
               Gm   C  Gm  C 
And I could scream 
              D       Ebmaj7        
But it don't work and dreams are 
F              Eb 
Maybe where I belong 

So I'll 

Gm                       C 
Keep on dreaming till I get it right 
Gm              C                N/C 
Even if I never get it right
