Strum
D-DU-UDU
 I dreamed a dream  in time 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  (But the tigers come at night)
 With their voices  soft as thunder
 As they tear  your hope apart  (As they tear your hope apart)
 And they turn your dream to shame
 And still I dream  he'll come to me
 That we will 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 different from  this hell  I'm living
 So different now  from what it seemed
 Now life has killed  the dream I dreamed.
