[Chord] Palm mute
D#-C-G#-F  
When I was a little boy
I swore that I would change the world
when I grew up
nothing else would be enough
[Chord]
C-Bb-F-G#  
I see it every day
We settle for safe
And lose ourselves along the way
[Chord]
D#-C-Bb-G#  
But if we don’t Dream Big
What’s the use in dreaming
If you don’t have faith
there’s nothing worth believing
It takes one hope
To make the stars worth reaching for
So reach out for something more
[Chord] same patern
Took a while to perfect a plan
for me to finally understand
that it’s not me
faith is something you can’t see
I’ve wiped my tears away
now it’s time for a change
No, I can’t waste another day
But if we don’t Dream Big
What’s the use in dreaming
If you don’t have faith
there’s nothing worth believing
It takes one hope
To make the stars worth reaching for
Coz if you don’t have faith
What’s the use in dreaming
If you don’t have faith
there’s nothing worth believing
It takes one hope
To make the stars worth reaching for
So reach out for something more.

What’s the use in dreaming

If you don’t have faith

there’s nothing worth believing

It takes one hope

To make the stars worth reaching for

So reach out for something more

No, I can’t waste another day

But if we don’t Dream Big

If you don’t have faith

It takes one hope

To make the stars worth reaching for

Coz if you don’t have faith

What’s the use in dreaming

If you don’t have faith

there’s nothing worth believing

It takes one hope

To make the stars worth reaching for

So reach out for something more.
