Don't ever try to climb too high
F#m A
'Cause it's the fall that gets ya
F#m B F#m
And some dreams can never come true
B F#m B
They'll never come true"
E
Well, I heard every word he said
E
But I don't guess I listened
E C#m
But every time I banged my head
F#m A
Against the wall or system
F#m B F#m
Yeah, some dreams don't ever come true
B F#m
Don't ever come true
B A
But some dreams do
B
If you just hang on
F#m
And your heart is true
B
And your hope is strong
E
Well, just because you've been around
E
And had your poor heart broken
E C#m
That's no excuse for lyin' there
F#m A
Before the last word's spoken
F#m B F#m
'Cause some dreams don't ever come true
B F#m
Don't ever come true
B
Aw, but some dreams do
