                G        C       G9    G          
A dream is a wish your heart makes 
 
 
   G        B7       C    C/B  E7    
When you're fast asleep; 
 
 
     Am            Fdim      Am         Am+7 
In dreams you will lose your heartaches, 
 
 
        D7       Am7            G         D+ 
And whatever you wish for, you keep. 
 
 
      G            C              G9   G 
Have faith in your dreams, and someday 
 
 
      G                B7        C       C/B 
Your rainbow will come smiling through; 
 
 
          Am7                F7 
No matter how your heart is grieving, 
 
 
   G      Bm7/5-    E7 
If you keep on believing, 
 
                                   1. G      Gdim    D7 
    Am7             D9             2. G      
The dreams that you wish will come true. 
  
 
repeat twice
