Intro – D G D G …
RE SOL
1. I was dreaming in my dreaming
RE SOL
of an aspect bright and fair
RE SOL
and my sleeping it was broken
RE SOL
but my dream it lingered near
RE SOL
in the form of shining valleys
RE SOL
where the pure air recognized
RE SOL
and my senses newly opened
RE SOL
I awakened to the cry
FA#m SOL
that the people / have the power
RE LA
to redeem / the work of fools
FA#m SOL
upon the meek / the graces shower
RE LA
it's decreed / the people rule
RE SOL
The people have the power
MIm LA
The people have the power
RE SOL
The people have the power
MIm LA
The people have the power
(Same chords as verse 1)
2. Vengeful aspects became suspect
and bending low as if to hear
and the armies ceased advancing
because the people had their ear
and the shepherds and the soldiers
lay beneath the stars
exchanging visions
and laying arms
to waste / in the dust
in the form of / shining valleys
where the pure air / recognized
and my senses / newly opened
I awakened / to the cry
Refrain
3. Where there were deserts
I saw fountains
like cream the waters rise
and we strolled there together
with none to laugh or criticize
and the leopard
and the lamb
lay together truly bound
I was hoping in my hoping
to recall what I had found
I was dreaming in my dreaming
god knows / a purer view
as I surrender to my sleeping
I commit my dream to you
Refrain
RE SOL
4. The power to dream / to rule
MIm LA
to wrestle the world from fools
RE SOL
well it’s decreed the people rule
MIm LA
well it’s decreed the people rule
LISTEN
RE SOL
I believe everything we dream
MIm LA
Can come to pass through our union
RE SOL
We can turn the world around
MIm LA
We can turn the earth’s revolution
Refrain
