Lyrics
If my Dreams had Wings
1.
D A7 D A7 D
It's another day in this life of mine, when I try too hard and get left behind,
G A7 D
It's cruel card to be dealt this time, for a crock of gold I may never find.
Chorus
If my dreams had wings tell me could they fly,
Would they reach the moon, or just pass on by,
And if dreams come true, would they make smile,
Are they out there still gone a million miles.
2.
Turn the world around, turn it upside down,
Underneath the stone, what treasure could be found,
For each drop of rain, helps to fill the stream,
Hold onto your hopes, hold onto your dreams.
Middle eight
G D
Wish upon a star and tell me where you are tonight,
G F# Em A7
Fly me to the moon, don't wake me up until the time is right,
G A7
When all hearts unite.
3.
It's another strain, on this heart of mine,
When I try too hard and get left behind,
When I roll the dice, and I miss the nine,
When I'm flying high, or just passing time.
