On The Wings Of A Dream
John Denver
INTRO C Am Am7 C Am Am7 G D D7
G D G
Yesterday I had a dream about dying
Bm D G
About laying to rest and then flying
C G
How the moment at hand
D D7 G D7
Is the only thing we really own
G D G
And I lay in my bed and I wondered
Bm D G
After all has been said and is done for
C G D
Why is it thus we are here
D7 G
And so soon we are gone
