[Bm][D]
A man [Bm]cried,

[Verse 1]
"Where do we look?
Where do [D]we search?
How do we find [Bm]it?"
A woman cried, "Love
My body needs love, my soul needs love,
how do [D]I find it?"
We all [Bm]need love, gotta have love

[Interlude 1]
Prophet! Prophet!
[Bm][D][Bm][D][Bm]
[D][Bm][D][Bm][D][Bm][D]

[Verse 2]
He [Bm]said that love will call to you
So follow him, though it's hard to do
Believe, [D]be lieve! We gotta
be[Bm]lieve![D]
[Bm]Within your [D]heart is the secret of life
With [Bm]joy and sorrow,
pleas[D]ure [Bm]and strife
Love is [D]all of these things

[Verse 3]
I [Bm]dream of the [D]prophet- [Bm]man
[D]from a far[Bm] distant land

A priestess [Bm]said,

[Verse 4]
"Tell us a prayer!"
A lawyer said, "Is [D]law fair?"
Astronomer[Bm]s cried of
galax[D]ies and time
[Bm]A poet s[D]aid, "Is there duty to find?"
Speak [Bm]of God, [D]speak [Bm]of reas[Bb]on
Speak [Bm]about death,
speak about freedom
Gotta have truth, gotta have wis[D]dom
Give us your [Bm]word to give to our children

[Verse 5]
I [Bm]dream of the [D]prophet [Bm]man[D]
from a [Bm]far distant l[D]and
[Bm]Ali!

[Verse 6]
[D]clo[Bm]ck st[D]ru[Bm]ck[D]
[Bm]12 on the [D]church odd [Bm]wall
Their voices beckoned to the

[Verse 8]
[D]Blame your[Bm]self for [D]wrong
deed[Bm]s done
The innocent can be
the guilty [D]ones
Freedom [Bm]disguises itself

[D]Happiness sometimes
hides [Bm]in pain
[D]Children are made and are

[Verse 9]
[Bm]born to you
But they're not slaves that belong
[D]to you[Bm]
God doesn't listen to the words you pray
He hears what your heart has got [D]to say[Bm]

I [Bm]dream [D]of [Bm]the prophet[D] man
from a far distant [Bm]land
[D]Ali![Bm][D][Bm][D][Bm][D]
I [Bm]dream [D]of the prophet
man from a far distant land
