Tough To Be A Dreamer Cifras

[Intro]
C Am Dm G
 
[Verse 1]
      C
Well, everyone's the hero in their own story
 
Everyone's a sucker for a taste of glory
    F                                                        C
But stories are for children and glory's not a taste I can acquire
 
    C
And people say that wishes are the path to freedom
 
See the stars a-shining, honey, you could be one
    F                                                               C
But pipe dreams flush away and in the cold grey light of day they expire
 
[Pre-chorus 1]
        Dm
Cause I built my castle on broken dreams
       F
And as time goes by I must admit it seems
           Dm          F                     G
Like I was sold a lie, makes me wanna cry so loud, so loud
 
[Chorus]
           C
Cause it's tough to be a dreamer when they don't come true
Am
Nothing seems to happen and you can't break through
Dm
Feel like a blossoming is overdue
         G
When you realise no one's gonna give the world to you
      C
Well, ain't no use in crying, darling, so they say
Am
Find a thing you love to do and make it pay
Dm
Nothing you accomplish matters anyway
   G
So all that really counts is how you live today
 
[Instrumental]
C Am Dm G
 
[Verse 2]
      C
Well, I'm not one to get uptight for no good reason
 
While some might see decay I see a change of season
    F                          Fm                         C
And everyone's got problems no more or less pathetic than mine
 
          C
Cause I'm trying to project a sunny disposition
 
But it's hard to paint a smile on wasted young ambition
    F                          Fm                                 C
And every day's another little grain of sand lost to the mists of time
 
[Pre-chorus 2]
         Dm
Cause if I can't make it then what's the point
      F
If my whole damn life is set to disappoint
       Dm                     F              G
Well, I guess there's nothing left to do but smile, so smile
 
[Chorus]
           C
Cause it's tough to be a dreamer when they don't come true
Am
Nothing seems to happen and you can't break through
Dm
Feel like a blossoming is overdue
         G
When you realise no one's gonna give the world to you
      C
Well, ain't no use in crying, darling, so they say
Am
Find a thing you love to do and make it pay
Dm
Nothing you accomplish matters anyway
   G
So all that really counts is how you live today
 
[Bridge]
F                              C
Well, if this is all that ever will be that's OK
F
But there's no damn noise left to drown out the 
Fm                                                G
Sound of the petals that sigh as they're falling away
 
[Chorus]
           C
Cause it's tough to be a dreamer when they don't come true
Am
Nothing seems to happen and you can't break through
Dm
Feel like a blossoming is overdue
         G
When you realise no one's gonna give the world to you
      C
Well, ain't no use in crying, darling, so they say
Am
Find a thing you love to do and make it pay
Dm
Nothing you accomplish matters anyway
   G
So all that really counts, all that really counts
 
[Outro]
C                Am
   Whoa oh oh oh oh
                 Dm
   Whoa oh oh oh oh oh
                 G
   Whoa oh oh oh oh, yeah
