_ _ _ _ _ I've met some _ folks who say that [A] I'm a dreamer
_ [F#] _ And [B] I've no doubt _ there's truth in what [E] they say
_ _ _ But sure a _ _ body's bound to be [A] a dreamer
[F#] _ _ When [B] all the things he loves are [E] far away
_ And _ precious _ things are dreams of [A] children's exile
[F#] _ They [B] take them _ all the land [E] across the sea
_ _ _ Especially when _ it happens [A] he's an exile
[F#] _ _ From [B] that dear _ lovely isle of [E] Disney
[A] _ _
[E] _ And [A] when the _ moonlight _ peeks across [E] the towers
_ _ Of this [F#] great city, _ _ wondrous [B] though it _ be
_ [E] I scarcely _ hear [G#] its music _ [A] or its laughter _
[F#] _ _ I'm [B] once again _ [E]
[B] back home in [E] Disney
[A] _ _ _
[E] [B] I _ [E] _ [B] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _ _
[E] _ _ _ wander _ old green hills [A] and dreamy valleys _
[F#] _ And [B] find a peace no other land [E] could know _ _
_ _ I hear the _ birds make music, [A] bid for _ angels
[F#] _ And watch [B] the _ rivers lapping _ [E] as they _ [A] flow
[E] _ And then [A] in turn, a humble shack [E] I wander _ _
_ The dear [F#] ones _ there I _ tenderly [B] _ behold _
_ The [E] folks I _ love [G#] around the [A] turf I gather _
[F#] On _ [B] bended knees _ a rosary [E] is told
[A] _ _
[E] But dreams [A] don't last and dreams are [E] soon forgotten _ _
_ _ And soon [F#] I'm _ back to stern _ [B] reality _ _
_ _ Although [E] they've _ paved [G#] the _ footways [A] filled with gold _ [F#] dust
_ I [B] still would choose _ the isle of [E] Disney
_ [A] _ _
[E] _ Although they've _ _ [G#] paved the _ footways [A] filled with gold [F#] dust
