You Can Sleep While I Dream

(INTRO)
E   A   F#m   A

(VERSE)
E                                 
You're boy sits down to write a 
             A
song 'cause he thinks he's got 
something to say
F#m                               
Innocence thinks it can change the
              A
 world but the world keeps getting 
in the way
       E                           
It's a small list for the optimist 
    A
who believes that he can fly
     F#m                           
In a long line full of pessimists 
           A
to stop him every time he tries

((BRIDGE))
     C#m              A           
Some people see things as they are
           E
 and ask,"why?"
G#m                  A           
I dream things that never were, I
   F#m                 B
 take my shot and say, "why not?"

((Chorus))
E
(Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the 
dreamers
A
(Hey, hey, hey) Doubting 
disbelievers
F#m
Get out of my way
I bend but I aint' breaking
A
Scared but I ain't shaking
                          E
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(VERSE)
Convicted by convictions, they were 
A
carving out your cross
     F#m                           
They came to take your measurements
        A
 just to show you who's the boss

((BRIDGE))
C#m                A             
Until I reach that promised land 
        E
I won't stop
Continues after the ad
G#m                  A           
When I get there I'll shake your 
     F#m                   B
hand so meet me on that mountaintop

((Chorus))
E
(Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the 
dreamers
A
(Hey, hey, hey) Doubting 
disbelievers
F#m
Get out of my way
I bend but I aint' breaking
A
Scared but I ain't shaking
                          E
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the 
breathing
A
(Hey, hey, hey) Forgotten and the 
bleeding
F#m
(Get out of my way) I may whisper 
but I'm screaming
A
I got angels, I got demons
                            E
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(((BRIDGE)))
C                           E
I'm not suggesting that you fly with
 me (Yeah, yeah)
C                          E
Well here's a dose of some reality 
(Yeah, yeah)
       G#m
You're swinging at a change-up, boy 
you better shape up,
C#m
here comes the wrecking ball
     A                            
Good morning, here's your wake-up 
C   D   E  A  F#m  A
call

((Chorus))
E
(Hey, hey, hey) I feel the change a 
comin'
A
(Hey, hey, hey) See that train a 
comin'
((Chorus))
E
(Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the 
dreamers
A
(Hey, hey, hey) Doubting 
disbelievers
F#m
Get out of my way
I bend but I aint' breaking
A
Scared but I ain't shaking
                          E
Baby, you can sleep while I dream

(Hey, hey, hey) This one's for the 
breathing
A
(Hey, hey, hey) Forgotten and the 
bleeding
F#m
(Get out of my way) I may whisper 
but I'm screaming
A
I got angels, I got demons
                            E      
Baby, you can sleep while I dream, 
       A            E        A
when I dream… and I dream… I dream…
E
(Hey, hey, hey) I can feel the 
change a come
A
(Hey, hey, hey) I see that train a 
coming
E   A
Can you see it?
                         E
Baby, you can sleep while I dream
