A Girl Can Dream

Note: Original key is 1/2 step higher (Bbm)

Intro:
Am--E

  Am
When I was a child the story would say
  D                              G
Somebody will sweep you off your feet someday
  Am
That's what I hoped would happen with you
  D                    G
More than you could know

  Am
I wanted to tell you that my heart's in your hands
  D                             G
I prayed for the day that I would get the chance
  Am
And just when I worked up the courage to try
  D                 G
Much to my surprise
  F#m                 D
You had somebody else
         C#m        D          E
These feelings I keep to myself

Chorus
        A               D
I may never get to hold you so tight
         E                  F#m
I may never get to kiss you goodnight
  D                       F#m
I may never get to look deep in your eyes
  E
Or so it seems
        C#m                  D
I always will be wishing you were mine
      E                      F#m
I think about what could be all the time
  D                          F#m
All the happiness that I could find
  E                  A
Baby, a girl can dream

  Am
From the moment I wake up til I fall asleep
  D                       G
I imagine you not with her but with me
  Am
Talking and laughing, sharing our dreams
  D                  G
But it's just a fantasy
       F#m                  D
Cause you have somebody else
          C#m        D          E
These feelings I keep to myself

(Repeat Chorus except last word)
               D
... dream

Bridge
  D              E
A girl can dream it's true
  F#m                G#m
And to call you my own
  C#m           D          E
Is the sweetest dream I know

Adlib
A-D-E-F#m

(Repeat Chorus moving chords 1 step <B> higher)
