Hey, have you ever tried

Really reaching out for the other side?
G C
I may be climbing on rainbows
F
But baby, here goes…
Chorus
[F]Dreams, they’re for those who [C]sleep
[F]Life, is for us to [C]keep

[G]I really think that we could [C]make it, girl
[/verse]
Bridge

And [G]for once in your life
[/verse]

What’s around the bend, it’s there ’til the end

And if you’re ready, I am too

Maybe we can make it, baby…
Chorus
