Intro: (Am G C F/E  F/E C Gmaj9/E G/B) (2x) 

Verso 1: 

Am  G           C     F/E 
Way back on the radio dial 
  F/E      C    Gmaj9/E      G/B 
A fire got lit inside a   bright eyed child 
Am    G         C                   F/E 
Every note just wrapped around your soul 
     F/E          C          Gmaj9/E      G/B 
From steel guitar to Memphis all the   way to rock and roll 


[Refrão]

F      C      Am             G 
Whoa oah I can hear 'em saying 
F              C            Am              G 
I can hear the ringing of a beat up old guitar 
F      C      Am             G 
Woah oah I can hear 'em saying 
F       C             G                 C 
Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart 


Verso 2: 

Am  G    C               F/E 
Downtown where I used to wander 
F/E        C            Gmaj9/E      G/B 
Old enough to get there but too young to get inside 
Am G    C                F/E 
I would stand out on the sidewalk 
F/E       C         Gmaj9/E    G/B  
Listen to the music playing every Friday night 


[Refrão]

F       C    Am             G 
Whoa oah I can hear 'em playing 
F              C            Am              G 
I can hear the ringing of a beat up old guitar 
F       C    Am             G 
Woah oah I can hear 'em saying 
F       C             C                 G 
Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart 

Verso 3: 

Am   G      C                F/E 
Some dreams stay with you forever 
F/E       C         Gmaj9/E        G/B 
Drag you around and lead you   back to where you were 
Am   G      C               F/E 
Some dreams keep on getting better 
F/E         C         Gmaj9/E    G/B 
Got to keep believing if you   want to know for sure 


[Refrão]

F      C     Am             G 
Whoa oah I can hear 'em saying 
F              C            Am              G 
I can hear the ringing of a beat up old guitar 
F      C     Am             G 
Woah oah I can hear 'em saying 
F       C             C                 G 
Keep on dreaming even if it breaks your heart  (2x)
