Impossible Dream chords by Andy Williams

composed by Mitch Leigh, lyrics by Joe Darion from 1965 musical Man of La Mancha

D   G              D         G
To  dream... the impossible  dream...
   C              G         C   Am
To fight... the unbeatable  foe...
   Bm                   C
To bear with unbearable sorrow...
       Am                              D
and to run... where the brave dare not go...

   G              D         G
To right... the unrightable wrong...
          C                G            Am
   and to love... pure and chaste from afar...
   Bm                            C
To try... when your arms are too weary...
       Am                       D
and to reach... the unreachable star...

           G                     Em
This is my quest, to follow that star...
              Bm                      C
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far...
                  Em                         C
To  fight for the right, without question or pause
                 G          Em          C        F
To be willing to march into Hell, for a Heavenly cause...
      Am                   F                      Bm
and I know if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest,
        C                           Am
that my heart will lie peaceful and calm,
                    B         D  D7
when I'm laid to my rest______

            G             D          Bm
__And the__ world will be better for this:
         C                G            Am
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
      Bm                             C
still strove, with his last ounce of courage...
     G                D         Em     D
__To reach__... the unreachable star...
   G              D         G
To reach... the unreachable star...
