A Street Called Hope

Intro:  Am  C   Am  C

Am       C         Em       G
I took a room in a house of gloom
F                 G       Am
Somewhere I could hide my soul
                 C             Em 
There I hoped to find a way to 
     G
ease my mind
F                 G       Am
Couldn't face the gloom tomorrow

  C             G        Am       
I sat until the hours of three or 
F
four
Am               F        Am
Thinking doesn't help but seems

  C                G               
I crept to bed and cried myself to 
Am         F
sleep once more
Am                     E7
Then I had the wildest dream

Chorus:
 Am                       Dm      
(Street called Hope) in a town 
   Am
named Freedom
      Dm            G              
Where each clock is pointed to the 
C       E7
hour of love
       Am                        
Upon a street called Hope at the 
Dm       Am
house of Welcome
Dm               Am         E7  
That's where she opened the door
    Am
 of love

When I awoke the following day
Every doubt had left my mind
My dream it taught me what the 
prophets say
Those who seek will always find

I ran down the stair and out in to 
the street
Looking for the nearest phone
We both said sorry and decided to 
meet
To find ourselves a happy home

Chorus (repeat and fade)
