I Dreamed A Dream piano leadsheet with chords

I dreamed a dream in days gone by

when hope was high and life worth living.

I dreamed that love would never die.

I dreamed that God would be forgiving.

Then I was young and unafraid

and dreams were made and used and wasted.

There was no ransom to be paid,

no song unsung, no wine untasted.

But the tigers come at night with their voices soft as thunder,

as they tear your hope apart,

as they turn your dream to shame.

He slept a summer by my side.

He filled my days with endless wonder.

He took my childhood in his stride.

But he was gone when autumn came.

And still I dreamed he'd come to me,

that we would live the years together.

But there are dreams that cannot be,

and there are storms we cannot weather.

I had a dream my life would be

so diff'rent from this hell I'm living,

so diff'rent now from what it seemed.

Now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
