Verse One:
Gmaj7Under the Dmaj7cold blues Gmaj7stars you would just F#stroll aBround the yard 
That’s what happens to dreams when the life strains, 
And the child lays in you...
When you got old you played guitar in a little town, your favorite bar
Just blowing steam now the lights fade,
And everyone's paid to see you...
So did the farm steal your soul when the cornfields won't grow 
It's time to leave, now the heart bleeds,
And the family leans on you...
You were under the cold blue stars in another town your favorite bar 
That's what happens to dreams when the life strains,
And the child lays in you...

Verse One:

Gmaj7 Dmaj7 Gmaj7 F# B

Under the cold blues stars you would just stroll around the yard

That’s what happens to dreams when the life strains,

And the child lays in you...

When you got old you played guitar in a little town, your favorite bar

Just blowing steam now the lights fade,

And everyone's paid to see you...

So did the farm steal your soul when the cornfields won't grow

It's time to leave, now the heart bleeds,

And the family leans on you...

You were under the cold blue stars in another town your favorite bar

That's what happens to dreams when the life strains,

And the child lays in you...
