[Verse]
A          D    A    E    A  E
Many's the time I've been 
 C#7     F#m  C#7       F#m
mistaken and many times confused
A            D  A  E    A  E 
Many's the time I've been 
C#7     F#m   C#7    F#m
forsaken and certainly abused
  A        D   A        E   A  
 but it's alright, it's

alright, You can be forever blessed
B7     E7       A      E7  B      E
When I think of another working day
A      D    A     E        C#7 
I've just got to get some rest,
  F#m   A   E       A Asus A
 I've got to get some rest
A                  D    A   E   
 I don't know a soul who's not 
A    E    C#7
been battered
               F#m        C#7   
 don't have a friend who feels at 
   F#m
ease
A              D     A      E   
I don't know a dream that's not 
A    E     C#7    F#m    C#7   
been shattered or driven to it's 
  F#m
knees

A            D   A          E 
Oh, but it's alright, it's 
A            D        A  E  C#7 F#m
alright we've lived so well so long
B7    E7                  A    
and when I think of the road 
E7    B         E
we've traveled' on
A   D  A E        C#7  F#m    
So far away from home,   so 
A   E        A Asus A
far away from home
A                    Asus A
And I dreamed I was dying
                  E    E7 
I dreamed that my soul rose 
      F#m     B7
unexpectedly
                 E           D    
And looking back down on me smiled
   A      E
 reassuringly
                     A  Asus A
And I dreamed I was flying
             E       E7         
And high up above my eyes could 
F#m       B7
clearly see
              E          D         
The Statue of Liberty - sailing 
A     E
away to sea
E7                  A  Asus A
And I dreamed I was flying

A                  D    A    E  
 We come on the ship they call 
A   E    C#7
the Mayflower
C#7            F#m       C#7    
We come on the ship that sailed 
    F#m
the moon
   A           D A  E    A E   
We come in the ages most 
    C#7       F#m     C#7      
uncertain hours and we sing an 
F#m
