[G][Em][Dsus4][D][C][G]
[Csus2][Dsus4]
[G][Csus2]
[Dsus4]

[Verse 1]
[G]You were [C]a t[Csus2]iny spark[G][Dsus4]
[G]Caught in [Csus2]your parents' eyes[Dsus4]
[G]When they mad[Csus2]e love in the dar[Dsus4]k
[G]Well, you were [Csus2]the big
sur[Dsus4]prise
And [D]the [Em]old man came through
Did his [Bm]very best for you
And your [C]mama's arms,
they kep[Am]t you warm
[C]Lik[Csus2]e no othe[D]r arms would d[Em]o[D]
When you could[G]n't find the light,
at [Csus2]the top o[C]f the s[Csus2]tairs
When [Dsus4]you cried in the night,
you knew they were there
Till [G]the light of the day,
was [Csus2]as bright as the sea
And [Dsus4]you knew in your heart,
you were living the rest of the [G]dream[Csus2]
[Dsus4][D][G]
[Csus2][G][Dsus4]
[D]Well, [G]I had a d[C]rea[Csus2]m of you[Dsus4]
[D]But [G]I never [C]realize[Csus2]d[Dsus4]
[G]Baby, [Csus2]the dream was true[Dsus4]
[D]That's [G]when you[Csus2]
opened [Dsus4]my eyes
[D]Now [Em]I will come through,
do my [Bm]very best for you
And your [C]love and arms
gonna [Am]keep me [C]warm,
like [D]no other arms will do
When you can[G]'t find the light,
at [Csus2]the top of the stairs
When [Dsus4]you cry in the night,
you know I'll be there
[D]Till the[G] light of the day,
is [Csus2]as bright as it seems
As [Dsus4]you know [D]in your [Dsus4]heart,[D]
[Dsus4]you're livin' the rest of the dream[G][Csus2][Dsus4]
[G][Csus2][G][Dsus4]
[G][Em]
[Dsus4][D][Csus2]
[C]Now [G]I see a t[C]iny[Csus2] spark[C][Csus2][Dsus4]
[G]Caught in [D]your lov[Csus2] ing eye [C]s[Csus2][Dsus4]
[G]As we make lov[Csus2]e in[C][Csus2]
the [Dsus4]dark[D][G][Dsus4]
[G]And wait for the [Csus2]big sur[C]
[Csus2]prise[Dsus4][D]
[Dsus4]And the old[D] man wi[Em]ll come through
Son or [Bm]daughter just for you
And your [C]mama's arms
gonna keep [Am]you warm
[C]Like no [D]other arms can do
And you know that it's true
When you can[G]'t find a light
At [C]the top of [G]the stair[Csus2]s
When [Dsus4]you cry i[D]n the night
[Dsus4]You know I'll be there
[D]Till the[G] light of the day
Is [C]as bright as it seems
And [Dsus4]you know [D]in your heart
[Dsus4]We're living the best of[D]
[G]So you can't find a light
at the [C]top of the stair[Csus2]s
Where [Dsus4]you cry i[D]n the night
Where you know [Dsus4]I'll be there
[D]Till [G]the light of the day
is [C]as bright as [Csus2]it seems
And [Dsus4]you know in your [D]heart
[Dsus4]We're living the rest
So [D]you can't find [G]a light
at the [C]top of the stairs
Where [D]you [Dsus4]cry in the night
You know I'll be there
Till the light of the day
Is as [Csus2]bright as it seems
And you [Dsus4]know in your heart
We're living the rest
When you can't find the light
At the top of the stairs
When you find the light
[Dsus4]You know I'll be there
Till the light of the day
Is as bright as it seems
When you know in your heart

[Outro 1]
We're living the rest of the dream
