C Am C Am
 
 
[Verse 1]
              C              Am       F         Gsus4
There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
          C    Em      Am     Em   F        G
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
         C          C7
If I can dream of a better land
      F                    E7      Am
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
        C/G     Am
Tell me why, oh why?
    F   Dm7      C/E    Am   Dm7   G   F   G
Oh, why can't my dreams come true? Oh, why?
 
 
[Verse 2]
             C               Am       F        Gsus4
There must be peace and understanding sometime
               C      Em         Am        Em  F         G
Strong wind of promise that will blow away the doubt and fear
         C          C7
If I can dream of a warmer sun
      F                     E7   Am
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
        C/G     Am      F   Dm7        Em  G  C   F C C7
Tеll me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear
 
 
[Chorus]
F                D7   C              C7
 We'rе lost in a cloud with too much rain
F                   D7   C                     C7
 We're trapped in a world that's troubled with pain
F                 D7          C/G      E7 Am
 But as long as a man has the strength to dream
         D7sus4   D7       F/G    G
He can redeem his soul and fly, oh
 
 
[Verse 3]
           D                Bm        G        G/A
Deep in my heart, there's a trembling question
            D   F#m       Bm
Still, I am sure that the answer's
F#m            Em       A
Answer's gonna come somehow
                 Bm  D7                    G     G#
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle, yeah
 
 
[Outro]
                D/A                Bm
And while I can think, while I can talk
            D/A                Bm
While I can stand, while I can walk
            G
While I can dream, oh
              Em         G/A       N.C.  D    Bm  D Bm
Please let my dream come true, oh, right now
D G       D
Oh, right now

There must be lights burning brighter somewhere
Got to be birds flying higher in a sky more blue
If I can dream of a better land
Where all my brothers walk hand in hand
Tell me why, oh why, oh why can't my dreams come true?
Oh, why?

There must be peace and understanding sometimes
Strong winds of promise that will blow away
The doubt and fear
If I can dream of a warmer sun
Where hope keeps shining on everyone
Tell me why, oh why, oh why won't that sun appear?

We're lost in a cloud
With too much rain
We're trapped in a world
That's troubled with pain
But as long as a man
Has the strength to dream
He can redeem his soul and fly
Oh

Deep in my heart there's a trembling question
Still I am sure that the answer, the answer's gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle
And while I can think, while I can talk
While I can stand, while I can walk
While I can dream, please let my dream
Come true, oh
Right now
Oh, right now
