[Verse]
C G
Thought there'd be a man
G C
In a suit and a ten-gallon hat
C G D
He'd give me a deal and a red Cadillac
C G C
I'd make hit records and get hooked on drugs
C G D
But I wound up pregnant and strung out on love
[Chorus]
G D
Dreams don't come true
C G
They'll make a mess out of you
Cm G
They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind
D
They'll bleed your heart black and blue
C D
Don't let anyone tell you they do
D G
Dreams don't come true
[Verse]
C G
I thought I'd change the world
G C
With three chords and the truth
C G D
I'd be like Elvis but with lipstick and boobs
C G C
My bra would be floatin' in a guitar-shaped pool
G D G
And I'd flip the bird to them whores in high school
[Chorus]
G D
Dreams don't come true
C G
They'll make a mess out of you
Cm G
They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind
D
They'll bleed your heart black and blue
C D
Don't let anyone tell you they do
D G
Dreams don't come true
[Bridge]
C G D G
I hate to put a damper on the fairytale you pictured
C G
I should have known all along
C D
That glass slippers give you blisters
[Instrumental]
Cm G A D Cm G A D C Bm D
[Chorus]
G D
Dreams don't come true
C G
They'll make a mess out of you
Cm G
They'll hang around the darkest corners of your mind
D
They'll bleed your heart black and blue
C D
Don't let anyone tell you they do
D G
Dreams don't come true
