INTRO: C Bb F C Bb F
#1.
C G C
With the music of life, my soul is out of tune,
F C
and I feel like I'm growing old much too soon.
F C
My love for you, I just couldn't convey,
Em D G C
and the keys to my happiness, I let slip away.
CHORUS:
G C Em
Now, I'm a man without a dream, I've got a heart
Dm G
that has no home.
C Dm Em Dm
All my senses are numb, losing you, I've become
G C Bb F
a man without a dream.
#2.
C G C
Instead of striving to reach my goals and my aims,
G C
I got distracted with mean, endless games.
C
For just an illusion, I traded love that was real,
Em Dm G C
now my eyes cannot see and my heart cannot feel.
CHORUS:
G C Em
Now, I'm a man without a dream, I've got a heart
Dm G
that has no home.
C Dm Em Dm
All my senses are numb, losing you, I've become
G C Bb F
a man without a dream.
INTERLUDE: C F Eb Ab Eb Ab G
#3.
C F C
Sometimes I think I'm a prisoner of fate, doomed to
F C
find out things a little too late.
C Em
And so I must play this broken man's role, unless you
D G C
come home, girl, and bring back my soul.
CHORUS:
G C Em
Now, I'm a man without a dream, I've got a heart
Dm G
that has no home.
C Dm Em Dm
All my senses are numb, losing you, I've become
G C Bb F
a man without a dream.
