 Verse 1:
        D MajorD        E minorEm
I had a fragile dream in a gray house in the Hamptons
C majorC        D MajorD       E minorEm            D MajorD
I'd been there before, singing songs and doing benefits
  C majorC     D MajorD  E minorEm
Was in a room alone putting on my makeup
   C majorC            D MajorD     C majorC
Like so many things that come to me, the dress came across the Persian carpet

   D MajorD       E minorEm            C majorC
As I fell into the dress, a thought came to me
D MajorD    E minorEm       C majorC
Into my heart, I have a dream
D MajorD      E minorEm
 And a door opened
 C majorC         D MajorD
I turned to face the music

C majorC               D MajorD E minorEm
 I was ready for the Kennedys
 C majorC          D MajorD  E minorEm
I don't know if it was 1960  or 1963
C majorC        D MajorD    E minorEm
 Everything was timeless, even me
     C majorC       D MajorD      E minorEm
I wasn't old, I wasn't young, I was just part of their dream

 C majorC           D MajorD       C majorC
A augmentedA shadow walked with me down the hall, it was Martin Luther King
    D MajorD       E minorEm
All in shadow, all before me, overwhelmed by
C majorC    D MajorD    E minorEm
Destiny, someone said, "Sing us a song
     C majorC   D MajorD         E minorEm
There's a piano" and handed me a drink
       C majorC      D MajorD       C majorC       D MajorD C majorC
The room was full of hope, a song would set them free

C majorC         D MajorD        E minorEm
   Please God, show 'em the way
C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm
Please God, on this day
G+G C majorC      D MajorD         E minorEm
 Spirits all given the strength
C majorC           D MajorD       C majorC
Peace can come if you really want it


 Verse 2:        D MajorD  E minorEm
I sat at the piano, stared out of the shadows
C majorC         D MajorD    E minorEm
I sang the words, "I have a dream"
     C majorC       D MajorD       E minorEm
He wasn't my old friend John, I didn't know him then
    C majorC     D MajorD  C majorC
But he smiled at me,  and I sang these words

     D MajorD
Whatever it takes
E minorEm          C majorC    D MajorD
Whatever it takes to be free
E minorEm          C majorC    D MajorD
  No, I didn't know these men
E minorEm        C majorC D MajorD C majorC
  But they knew me


 Verse 3:
C majorC        D MajorD  E minorEm
It was all symbolic, nothing was as it seemed
C majorC        D MajorD       E minorEm              B minorBm  C majorC
 They all left us in a single shot but they didn't take the dream
     D MajorD       E minorEm
They were there in that house, discussing the future
  C majorC      D MajorD      C majorC
And drinking champagne, I was just a piano player

     D MajorD       E minorEm
The voice, part of their dream
       C majorC    D MajorD       E minorEm
I was thirty-five and maybe I was fifteen
    C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm            C majorC
It was just another night in the presence of Martin Luther King
D MajorD      C majorC              D MajorD    E minorEm
I was just a dreamer; I was ready for the Kennedys


E minorEm
And I said
C majorC         D MajorD        E minorEm
   Please God, show 'em the way
C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm
Please God, on this day
     C majorC       D MajorD
Light the fire, start it over

     E minorEm
Tell the world about the dream
C majorC        D MajorD      C majorC
Start it up and make it real

 Verse 4:
C majorC        D MajorD       E minorEm
Back in the room where it all began
         C majorC   D MajorD     E minorEm B minorBm
My heart began to heal, I believe it
C majorC       D MajorD         E minorEm
I remember the beauty of the Hamptons
        C majorC
Shadows playing in the sun

D MajorD     C majorC
 A augmentedA voice said, "The dream is not over, no
       D MajorD     E minorEm
The dream has just begun"
         C majorC       D MajorD
I spun around to see another shadow
E minorEm
Slipping through the door

  C majorC       D MajorD   E minorEm
And my eyes opened wide, "What is this all for?"
    C majorC       D MajorD        C majorC
And the shadow said, "Don't forget it, don't forget
           D MajorD  E minorEm
What we were fighting for, don't forget it"


E minorEm
And I said
C majorC      D MajorD        E minorEm
Please God, show 'em the way
          C majorC
(It's just another night)
C majorC      D MajorD      E minorEm
Please God, on this day
        C majorC
(Martin Luther King)

      D MajorD         E minorEm
Spirits all given the strength  (Sing us a song)
C majorC           D MajorD      C majorC
Peace can come if you fight for it (Don't forget it)
             D MajorD
Think we're just in time-ime to say


Chorus E minorEm
(Ooh, and said, oh said)
C majorC      D MajorD        E minorEm
Please God, show 'em the way (All in shadow)
C majorC      D MajorD     E minorEm
Please God, on this day  (All before me)
C majorC      D MajorD         C majorC
Spirits all given the strength

           D MajorD      E minorEm
Peace can come if you fight for it
      C majorC      D MajorD   E minorEm  C majorC
Think we're just in time to say this
  D MajorD    E minorEm  C majorC D MajorD
Set them free
C majorC
Room was full of hope

Don't forget what  we were fighting for

Think we're just in time-ime to say
