[Intro 1]
[G][D][Em][G][C][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I've [G]met some folks
[D]who [G]say tha[Em]t I'm[G] a dreamer[C][G]
[Am]And I've no doub[D]t there's
truth in what they [G]say
[D]But sure a bod[G]y's bou[Em]nd
[G]to be a [C]dream[G] er
[Am]When all the [D]things he loves
are far [G]away[D]
Unprecious [G]thing[D]s they a[G]re
dreams unto an [C]exile
[G]They [Am]take him [D]over
that land across the [G]sea
[D]Dispassionately whe[G]n it
hap[Em]pens [G]he's in [C]exile
[G]Fro[Am]m that dear lov[D]ely
[G]isle of [D]Innis[G]free
And when the [C]moonlight peaks
across the [G]rooftops
Of this great [Am]city, wondrous though [D]it be
[G]I s[Am]carcely f[G]eel i[D]t s[G]
[Em]wonder [G]or its [C]laughter
[G]I'm [Am]once again[D] back home, and it is free

[Verse 2]
I wander [G]lonely [D]hil[G]l s [Em]and
[G]dreamy [C]valleys[Em]
[Am]And find a peace[D] in a wilder land below
[G]I h[D]ear the bird[G]s and make
a [Em]music for [G]an [C]gels
[Em]An d[Am] watch the rive[D]rs
laughing as they [G]flow
[D]But dreams [G]don't last [D]here,
[G]no dre[Em]ams are not[G] forgot[C]ten
[G]An [Am]d soon I'm back[D]
to a [G]stunned reality
[D]An d though they [G]pave the [Em]footpaths
[G]here with [C]gold [Em]dust
[Am]I still ch[D]oose my life, of it is fre[G]e
And when the [C]moonlight bleeds
across [G]the rooftops
Of this great [Am]city, oh wondrous though it [D]be
I [Am]scarcely [G]feel its won
[Em]der [G]or its l[C]aughter
[Em]I wo[Am]n't want to miss again[D]
back home in the east for [C]me
[G]
