[D] [A] [D] [A]
[D] [A] Keep [D] it burning [A] bright, [D] hold the [A] flame till the dream [G] ignites.
Spirit [A] with a vision [G] is a dream [A] [D] with a mission.
[B]
[E] [Abm]
[Gb] [B] I hear the passionate music, leave the words that touch my [Abm] heart.
I [B] gaze at the feverish picture, the secrets that set them apart.
And I feel the powerful [E] visions, their fire's made alive.
[Abm] I wish I had that [Gb] instinct, I wish I had that [D] drive.
[A] [D] [A] [D] Spirits fly on dangerous missions, imaginations [A] on [G] fire.
Focused high on [Db] soaring [G] ambitions, consumed [A] in a single [D] desire.
In the grip of a nameless possession, slain to the drive of [G] obsession.
[A] Spirit with a [Bm] vision is a [Db] dream [D] with a mission.
[B] I watch their images flicker, bringing light to a lifeless [Abm] dream.
I [B] walk through their beautiful [Gb] building, and I wish I [B] had their dreams.
The dreams don't need to have [E] motion, to keep their spark alive.
[Abm]
[B] Obsession has to [Gb] have action, brightens on [D] the drive.
Spirits fly on dangerous missions, imaginations [A] on [G] fire.
Focused high [A] on soaring [G] ambitions, consumed [A] in a single [D] desire.
In [A] the grip of a nameless [D] possession, slain [A] to a driving [G] obsession.
Spirit [A] with a [G] vision is a dream [Db] [D] with a mission.

[G] To [A] know how they struggled, [G] how they [A] suffered about it.
[D] If their [A] lives were emphatic and [D] strange, they would [A] likely and gladly exchange [G] them for something a [A] little more plain.
[G] Maybe something a [A] little more sane.
[D] We [A] each pay a fabulous [D] price, all our visions of paradise.
[G] But a spirit [A] with a vision [G] is a dream [A] [D] with a mission.
[G] Spirit [A] with a vision [G] is a dream.
