Verse 1
GD
I close my eyes and I can see
Em
A world that’s waiting up for me
C
That I call my own
GD
Through the dark, through the door
Em
Through where no one’s been before
C
But it feels like home
Chorus
GD
A million dreams are keeping me awake
EmC
I think of what the world could be
GD
A vision of the one I see
EmC
A million dreams is all it’s gonna take
GD
A million dreams for the world we’re gonna make
Verse 2
GD
There’s a house we can build
Em
Every room inside is filled
C
With things from far away
GD
Special things I compile
Em
Each one there to make you smile
C
On a rainy day
