                            C 
The other night I dreamed I died 
G                                    D 
Close friends mourned and loved ones cried 
  G                                      C 
I wanted to shout down from my dream and say 
     G        D   G 
Life will not go away 
  
  
                               C 
You can die in battle, you can die in sleep 
     G                                                           D 
Even though you lose most everything, there's something you will keep 
        G                            C 
You can take my body, but I will not die 
     G        D   G 
Life will not go away
