AA Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream DA I'd ever dreamed before AEA I dreamed the world had all agreed EA To put an end to war
DA I dreamed I saw a mighty room EA And the room was filled with men DA And the paper they were signing said EA They'd never fight again
AA And when the paper was all signed DA And a million copies made EA They all joined hands and bowed their heads EA And grateful pray'rs were prayed
DA And the people in the streets below EA Were dancing 'round and 'round DA And swords and guns and uniforms EA Were scattered on the ground
AA Hier soir j’ai eu le plus étrange des rêves DA Que je n’ai jamais eu A J’ai rêvé que le monde était d’accord EA Pour ne plus faire la guerre
DA Je voyais une immense salle EA Toute remplie de gens Et le papier qu’ils signaient EA disait, Qu’ils ne se battraient plus
AA Et quand le papier fut signé DA Et à un million de copies tiré EA Joignant leurs mains ils s’embrassèrent EA Et tous ensemble ils prièrent
DA Et dans les rues les gens dansaient EA Dansaient tous en rond DA Des milliers de fusils et d’uniformes EA Jonchaient le sol
AA Last Night I Had The Strangest Dream DA I'd ever dreamed before AEA I dreamed the world had all agreed EA To put an end to war
