Verse 1:
Dmaj7       E
  I had a dream
C#m7                  Dmaj7**
  I got everything I wanted
Dmaj7**          E
  Not what you think
C#m7                Dmaj7
  And if I'm being honest
                      Dmaj7**  E
...might have been a nightmare
               C#m7      Dmaj7**
To anyone who might care
Dmaj7             E
  Thought I could fly
C#m7                       Dmaj7
  So I stepped off of the Golden
Dmaj7      E
  Nobody cried
C#m7           Dmaj7**
  Nobody even noticed
                     Dmaj7**   E
I saw them standing right there
                    C#m7       Dmaj7**
Kinda thought they might care

Pre-Chorus:
Dmaj7**     E
  I had a dream
C#m7                  Dmaj7
  I got everything I wanted
    Dmaj7          E
But when I wake up I see
C#m7       Dmaj7*
You with me
        Dmaj7
And you say (begin strumming)


Chorus:
            E
As long as I'm here
C#m7         Dmaj7
  No one can hurt you
Dmaj7          E
  Don't wanna lie here
C#m7           Dmaj7
  But you can learn to
Dmaj7          E
  If I could change
    C#7          Dmaj7
The way that you see yourself
Dmaj7                   E
  You wouldn't wonder why you're here
C#m7            Dmaj7                     Dmaj7
  They don't deserve you. No, no, no, no, no.


Verse 2:
           E
I tried to scream
C#m7                    Dmaj7
  But my head was under water
Dmaj7             E
  They called me weak
C#m7                       Dmaj7
  Like I'm not somebody's daughter
                 Dmaj7    E
Could've been a nightmare
                           C#m7        Dmaj7
But it felt like you were right there
       Dmaj7                       E
And it feels like yesterday was a year ago
    C#m7                 Dmaj7
But I don't wanna let anybody know
      Dmaj7                     E
Cause everybody wants something from me now
    C#m7                    Dmaj7
And I don't wanna let them do-o-own


Pre-Chorus:
Dmaj7*      E*
  I had a dream
C#m7*               Dmaj7*
I got everything I wanted
    Dmaj7          E
But when I wake up I see
C#m7      Dmaj7
You with me
        Dmaj7
And you say


Chorus:
           E
As long as I'm here
C#m7         Dmaj7
  No one can hurt you
Dmaj7          E
  Don't wanna lie here
C#m7           Dmaj7
  But you can learn to
Dmaj7          E
  If I could change
    C#7          Dmaj7
The way that you see yourself
Dmaj7                   E
  You wouldn't wonder why you're here
C#m7            Dmaj7
  They don't deserve you


Bridge:
     Dmaj7              E
And, if I knew it all then
               C#m7
Would I do it again
               Dmaj7
Would I do it again, oh
     Dmaj7                   E
And, if they knew what they said
                        C#m7
Would go straight to my head
                        Dmaj7
What would they say instead, oh

Outro:
     Dmaj7              E
And, if I knew it all then
               C#m7
Would I do it again
               Dmaj7
Would I do it again
     Dmaj7*                  E*
And, if they knew what they said
                        C#m7*
Would go straight to my head
                        Dmaj7*
What would they say instead, now
