[Intro]
D Dsus2
D C G (x3)
[Verse 1]
D
I picture us together
C G
Framed in gold leaf
D
On the mantle with the others
C G
One big happy family
Bm
But that snapshot can't be found
C G
And I don't trust my memory
C G
It's alright, it's alright
D
For a dream
[Verse 2]
D
I imagine we are gathered
C G
But this time not dressed in black
D
There's laughing and smiling
C G
Not stabbing in the back
Bm
But it's too good to be true
C G
And too bad I still recall the screams
C G
But it's alright, it's alright
D
For a dream
[Verse 3]
D
I keep half the pictures
C G
Mostly in my mind
D
Mama dressed in white
C G
Ripped where she held your hand
Bm
Showing no signs of age
C G
Just slightly frayed along the seam
C G
But it's alright, it's alright
D
For a dream
[Bridge]
Bm
It's alright
G
All that I can claim
D
It's alright
A
And it will have to do
Bm
It's alright
G
Better than the pain
D
It's alright
A
Better than the truth
Bm
It's alright
G
Alright for a dream
D
It's alright
A
Better than fate and the great scheme
Em
It's alright
G
It's alright
[Verse 4]
D
For Christmas and for New Year
C G
I wish and I resolve
D
But I'm disappointed by myself
C G
Jesus and Santa Claus
Bm
I want to believe
C G
She's been saved and he's been redeemed
C N.C. G N.C.
And it's alright, it's alright
D N.C.
For a dream
I picture us together
Framed in gold neat
On the mantle with the others
One big happy family
But that snapshot can't be found
And I don't trust my memory
But it's alright, it's alright
For a dream
I imagine we are gathered
But this time no dressed in black
There's laughing and smiling
Not stabbing in the back
But it's too good to be true
And too bad I still recall the screams
But it's alright, it's alright
For a dream
I keep half the picture
Mostly in my mind
Mama dressed in white
Ripped where she held your hand
Showing no signs of age
Just slightly frayed along the seam
But it's alright, it's alright
For a dream
It's alright
And that I can claim
It's alright
And it will have to do
It's alright
Better than the pain
It's alright
Better than the truth
It's alright
Alright for a dream
It's alright
Better that fate and the grand scheme
It's alright
It's alright
For Christmas and for New Year
I wish and I resolve
But I'm disappointed by myself
Jusus and Santa Claus
I want to believe
She's been saved
And he's been redeemed
But it's alright, it's alright
For a dream
