Intro : G  G  G  C  D  G 

G                                        C        D  G 
I don't want to be a poet, cause poets drown in lakes  
G                                       C     D          G 
And I don't be a sinner and watch the devil dance at my wake.  
G                                         C     D   G 
I just want to be a dreamer; a dreamer is wide awake  
G                                          C    D       G 
And I just want to be a lover even if my heart has to break.  

         C                D                 G             Em 
If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child  
         C             D                    G             Em 
If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild  
              C          D                G          D      Em 
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try  
               C 
So let’s sing, la, la, la, la  
D       G   D  Em 
La, la, la, la, la!  
C               D                   G 
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la  

G                  
I don't want to be president,  
                          C        D    G 
Cause I don't know which side to take  
G 
And I don't want to be a fortune teller,  
        C          D       G 
Cause that’s just tempting faith.  
G 
And I just want to be a drop of water  
                C         D  G 
Fall down in a storm of rain  
G 
Living life in the deep blue sea  
     C        D   G 
And rise back up again  

         C                D                 G             Em 
If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child  
         C             D                    G             Em 
If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild  
              C          D                G          D      Em 
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try  
               C 
So let’s sing, la, la, la, la  
D       G   D  Em 
La, la, la, la, la!  
C               D                   G 
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la  

              Em             D 
We've got the same desires, burning fires  
C       G            D 
In the middle of my songs.  
              Em                     D 
But I'm your gold and silver, won't last forever,  
C                    D 
So won't you let it go!  
G                                       C    D    G 
Cause we were born to be dreamers, dreamers wide awake.  
G                                   C     D       G 
We were born to be lovers even if hearts have to break.  


         C                D                 G             Em 
If only we could see the world through the new eyes of a child  
         C             D                    G             Em 
If only every boy and girl could just stay beautiful and wild  
              C          D                G          D      Em 
And there's probably no saving us, but I wrote this song to try

D       G   D  Em 
La, la, la, la, la!  
C               D                   G 
La, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la  
               C 
So let’s sing, la, la, la, la  
D       G   D  Em 
La, la, la, la, la! 
               C               D                G 
So let’s sing, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
