[Verse 1]

              D         F#7
I built you up in my head
      Bm            G
So big you barely fit
             D            F#7
It wasn't fair it wasn't voluntary
 Bm               G
I get carried away
           F#7                  G
I'm just a man with too much to say


[Verse 2]

               D           F#7
I was better off caring less
        Bm             G
And I swear I do my best
                D               F#7
But when that heart comes to call
    Bm                 G
Beware you'll get it all
        F#7               G
It just happens when I fall


[Chorus]

          G           D*
There's a dream of mine
     A          Bm
It refuses to die
     G        D*           A
Despite what history's shown
          G               D*
Where she steps into my life
            F#7         Bm
And like a song I recognize
   G                     A                D*
We take all of these bricks and build a home


[Verse 3]

N.C.            D         F#7
Must have mistook her for you
       Bm                G
It's something that I'd do
              D                F#7
And I'm not mad that you're gone
  Bm          G
I'll move along
       F#7            G
I just hate being wrong


[Chorus]

           G          D*
About that dream of mine
     A          Bm
It refuses to die
     G        D*           A
Despite what history's shown
          G               D*
Where she steps into my life
            F#7         Bm
And like a song I recognize
   G                     A                D*
We take all of these bricks and build a home


[Bridge]

        Em              A
And I know it does sound crazy to most
             Em         A
I spend my life chasing melodies and ghosts
           Em                  F#7            Bm
But long ago a muse traced her shadow on my soul
       Em           Asus4  A
And I just gotta know


[Chorus]

           G           D*
About that dream of mine
     A          Bm  Bm/A
It refuses to die
     G        D*           A*
Despite what history's shown
          G               D*
Where she steps into my life
            F#7         Bm
And like a song I recognize
   G                     A*               Bm
We take all of these bricks and build a home
          G               A*             Bm         E7
And if you're not her I promise I will leave you alone
       G                   A                 D*
Sorry I thought you were someone that I'd known
