G            G                C    G 
You sit with the man who threw it all away 
        G            G               C      G       
And you dream of the birds that have flown away 
        G             D            G    C     D 
And you hope that you won't see it fall again  

                  G               C                 G     C 
And you will sing day by day, old joy comes back to me 
            G               C                 G     C 
You'll sing day by day, old joy comes back to me  

    G               G           C            G 
You say this is the life of the influence of dreams 
G                    G          C             G  
Tall buildings and a wife won't be enough for me 
         G           D           G          C       D  
There is more in the world to be found than dreams  



                  G               C                 G     C 
And you will sing day by day, old joy comes back to me 
            G               C                 G      C  
You'll sing day by day, old joy comes back to me  
           G           D    C               G           D   C   
Forget the things that get away, forget the things that get away 
      G         D    C          G         D    C  
Don't dream of yesterday, don't dream of yesterday
