 G                  D   G/D A/D  D
I've been chasing dreams for so long
 A              Bm
Just one step behind and then they're gone
   G          D         G/D  A/D  D
Illusions of love would come  and go
  A                  Bm    Em/B     Bm
I guess you have to hurt before you grow
   D/F#         G

Dm                  F                    Gm C
 I always seems to lose what I felt was mine
Dm                F                    Gm
And many times I tried to leave 'em behind
C        Dm            Bb
 Deep inside, hope was still alive
        Dm              Bb
Deep inside, they will never die
            Dm                Bb             Eb C
And that is why we're moving closer to the truth

I've won over the pain and  the fear
     Bb            F    Bb/F   C/F  F
It's been so very hard through the years
      C                Dm  Gm/D C/D  Dm
Been lookin' through a rainbow  of  tears
     F/A           Bb     C D  E   F  G    C F Bb/F F Bb/F C C
And still I've never really let go of the dream

[Verse 3]
Dm                  F                 Gm C
 Sometimes I felt my life fallin' apart
Dm                F                    Gm
And all the regrets were tearin at my heart
C        Dm            Bb
 Deep inside, hope was still alive
        Dm              Bb
Deep inside, dreams will never die
            Dm                Bb             Eb C

If we could see what we wanna be
Bb                                   F/A
 Well life's never easy, you get no guarantees
        Gm                                 Eb C
Why not give your all and see what you can find
