From the original Les Miserables notes.




INTRO: F  F/E  F/D  F/A  Bb Gm/C


VERSE 1:
F            F/E                Dm  F/C
 I dreamed a dream in time gone by

Bb             Bb/A                Gm7  C11 C7
 when hope was high and life worth living.

F               F/E             Dm7  F/C
 I dreamed that love would never die,

Bb7             Bb7/A           Gm7  C11 C7
 I dreamed that God would be forgiving.



VERSE 2:
F            F/E         Dm  F/C
 Then I was young and unafraid

Bb                Bb/A              Gm7  C11 C7
 when dreams were made and used and wasted.

F             F/E          Dm7  F/C
 There was no ransom to be paid,

Bb7        Bb7/A           Gm7  C11 C7
 no song unsung, no wine untasted.



BRIDGE:
D        D/F#           Gm  Gm/Bb
 But the tigers come at night

D           D/F#            G    G/B  
 with their voices soft as thunder

C        C/E            Fm  Fm/Ab
 as they tear your hope apart

C                           F  Gm/F  F  Gm/F  C
 as they turn your dream to shame.



VERSE 3:
F           F/E          Dm  F/C
 He slept a summer by my side,

Bb            Bb/A              Gm7  C13
 he filled my days with endless wonder.

F           F/E              Dm7  F/C
 He took my childhood in his stride

Bb7         C13              F  C/E  Cm6/Eb  Dsus7  D7
 but he was gone when autumn came.



VERSE 4:
G            G/F#                 Em  G/D
 And still I dreamed he'd come to me,

C              C/B              Am7  D13  D7
 that we would live the years together

G              G/F#               Em  G/D
 but there are dreams that cannot be

C              C/B              Am7   D13  D7
 and there are storms we cannot weather.



ENDING: 
G  G/F#  Em       G/D                 C  G/B
          I had a dream my life would be

Am7           C11       D        G
 so different from this hell I'm living,

              G/F#             Em7  G/D
 so different now from what it seemed

C             D7                 G  G/F#  Em7  G/B  C  D7  G             
 now life has killed the dream I dreamed.
