THE DREAM
EM B7 (Verse)
Am Em X2 Am Em B7 Em (Chorus

if you want to see behind those eyes
How he walks on the water hypnotized
how he believe every word of the preachers lies
while watching him try bring the dead back to life

if you want to believe
in such a dream
i can’t stop you believing
in such a fraudulent scheme
i wouldn’t stop you
i wouldn’t even think to try
but, please remember even the believers die

the house is on fire
the child was alone
you keep knocking on the window but nobodies was at home
when you realize it’s the preachers home
you question why God could leave this child so alone

if you want to believe
in such a dream
i can’t stop you believing
in such a fraudulent scheme
i wouldn’t stop you
i wouldn’t even think to try
but, please remember even the believers die

when i was a boy we were brought down to our knees to pray
Made to believe it would bring redemption to our troubles someday
then mother fell ill with a terrible disease
it brought all of the family down onto their knees

if you want to believe
in such a dream
i can’t stop you believing
in such a fraudulent scheme
i wouldn’t stop you
i wouldn’t even think to try
but, please just remember even the believers have to die

That little boy went to church everyday
he was a believer in everything that the preacher had to say
he believed every word even when the preacher had sinned
it took that boy a life time to understand that mans sin

if you want to believe
in such a dream
i can’t stop you believing
in such a fraudulent scheme
i wouldn’t stop you
i wouldn’t even think to try
but, please remember even the believers die
please remember even the believers die
