      Bb                    Eb
Don't look at your man in the same old way
          Bb        Eb
Take a new picture
            Bb                     Eb
Just because you don't see shooting stars
                     Bb
Doesn't mean it isn't perfect
          Eb
Can't you see


Chorus 1:

        Ab                         Eb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
        Ab                   Eb
It's the slow and steady fire
        Ab                         Eb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
          Ab                      Eb
It's your heart and soul's desire
        Ab                         Eb   Bb/D  Bb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of


Verse 2:

F                                        Bb
  So what's this about your best friend
            F                    Bb
She's got a brand new shiny boy
            F                     Bb
And they're moving out to Malibu
                     F
To play with all his pretty toys


Pre-Chorus 2:

            Bb                               Eb
And you feel closed in by the same four walls
                   Bb      Eb
The same old conversation
             Bb                        Eb
With the same old guy you've known for years
                  Bb
But use your imagination
       Eb
And you will see


Chorus 2:

        Ab                         Eb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
        Ab                   Eb
It's the slow and steady fire
        Ab                         Eb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
          Ab                      Eb
It's your heart and soul's desire
        Ab                         Eb   Bb/D
It's the stuff that dreams are made of


Bridge:

C                              Am7
What if the Prince on the horse in your fairytale
       G/B              G
Is right here in disguise
    C                                Am7
And what if the stars you've been reaching so high for
    G/B                G
Are shining in his eyes
   F    Bb
Oh yeah

Take another picture
         Bb                               Eb
Shoot the stars off in your own backyard
               Bb
Don't look any further
       Eb
And you will see

It's the slow and steady fire
        Ab                         Eb
It's the stuff that dreams are made of
          Ab                      Eb
It's your heart and soul's desire

It's the stuff that dreams are made of
        Ab                     Eb
It's the sands against the sky

It's the stuff that dreams are made of
          Ab                     Eb
It's your heart and soul's desire
