Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]The[Am][C][Dm]
[G][C][Dm]
[G][C][F][C][Dm]
[G][C][Am][C][Dm]
[G]win[C]g and the wheel,
[Am]they carry thing[C]s away
Whether it's [Dm]me that does the leavin
or the [G]love that flies [C]away
The moon outside my window
looks [F]so [Am]lonely tonigh[C]t
Oh, there's a [Dm]chunk out of it's [G]middle,
[Dm]big [G]enough for an old fool to hi[C]de[Am][C][Dm][G][C]
Where are all the dreamers,
[Am]that I used [C]know?

[Verse 2]
We used [Dm]to linger beneath street
lamps in the [G]halos and [C]the smoke
The wing and the wheel,
came to carry them away
Now they all [Dm]live out in the suburbs
where their [G]dreams
Are in their children at play
[C]

[Interlude 1]
[Am][C][Dm][G]

[Verse 3]
There's [C]a pale sky in the
east,all the stars are in the west
Oh, [Dm]here's to all the dreamers,
[G]may our open hearts find res[C]t
The wing and the wheel
are gonna carry us along
And we'll have [Dm]memories for company,
[G]long after [C]the songs are gone.

[Outro 1]
[C][Dm][G][C]
