Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D][G]
[D][A][G]

[Verse 1]
I was [D]born near the factory,
where [A]Henry wrote his name
[D]Sometimes I could hea[G]r the whistle blow
My [D]father pushed his headlights,
through that [A]northern English rain
He was [D]proud of everything he drove
[G]

[Verse 2]
And [D]mother's hair was fashioned,
for that [A]very special day
[D]She cried on board the liner and
[G]tried to wave good- bye
Five [D]weeks of remembering,
those [A]names we couldn't say
[D]Staring at the South Pacific sky
[G]

[Verse 3]
[A]
I share my [G]life with the immigrants
and the [D]ramblers
I drink my [G]wine with the middlemen
and the [D]gamblers

[Verse 4]
I spend my [G]time with schemers
on [A]the phone
But when I [G]dream, I dream [D]alone[A]
I dream [D]alone, [G]I dream alo[D]ne,
[A]I dream alo[G]ne

[Verse 5]
[G]As [D]soon as we set foot on
the sun[A]- burnt land
[D]The mountains all around [G]us ran with fire
My [D]family knew right then
that our be[A]st laid plans
[D]Would have to reach a lot hig[G]her[A]

[Verse 6]
I share my [G]life with the
immigrants and the [D]ramblers
I drink my [G]wine with the middlemen
and the [D]gamblers

[Verse 7]
I spend my [G]time with
schemers on the [A]phone
But when I [G]dream, I dream [D]alone[A]
I dream [D]alone, [G]I dream alo[D]ne,
[A]I dream alone
[G]

[Verse 8]
[C]Rows of simple houses,
[G]kids out on the street
[Fsus4]Windows all a[Bb]glow from
[Fsus4]the brand [F]new TV sets
[C]Screen door always slamming in that
[G]endless summer heat
[Bb]My father working late to pay his [F]debts

[Verse 9]
My [F]father working late to pay [G]hid
[D]debts[A]
[D][G][D][G][D][A]
[G]
Now my [D]little boy is safe in the com
[A]fort of his bed
The mon[D]ster he invented
we both [G]chased into the night
His [D]puzzle lies in pieces by [A]the book
that we just read
[D]The story of a man who
touched the sky
[G][A]

[Verse 10]
I share my [G]life with the immigrants
and the [D]ramblers
I drink my [G]wine with the middlemen
and the [D]gamblers

[Verse 11]
I spend my [G]time with
schemers on the [A]phone
But when I [G]dream, I dream alone

[Verse 12]
I share my life with the immigrants
and the [D]ramblers
I drink my [Em]wine with the middlemen
and the [D]gamblers

[Verse 13]
I spend [G]my time with schemers
on [A]the phone
But when I [G]dream, I dream [D]alone[A]
I dream [D]alone, [G]I dream alo[D]ne,
[A]I dream alone

[Outro 1]
[G]
