Verse:
G          D           Em             D
Hey Mister Dreamseller where have you been,

        C        D            G     D
Tell me have you dreams I can see?

  C      D            G     G/F#     Em
I came a-long just to bring you this song,

        A7        D         G    D
Can you spare one dream for me?

Verse:
You won't have met me and you'll soon forget,
So don't mind me tugging at your sleeve,
I'm asking you if I can fix a rendezvous,

         A7         D        G
For your dreams are all I be-lieve.

Chorus:
Am7                            Bm
Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on

            G        G/F#    G/F     Em    Em7
And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there,

Am7                               Bm             Em
Down the empty streets we'll disa-ppear into the dawn,

            Am7      C
If you have dreams e-nough to

D / D/C / G/B / D Dsus2 D (as intro)
share.

Verse:
Lay down your bundles of rags and reminders
And spread your wares on the ground,
Well I've got time if you're dealing rhyme,
I'm just hanging around.

Chorus:
Meet me on the corner when the lights are coming on
And I'll be there, I promise I'll be there,
Down the empty streets we'll disappear into the dawn,
If you have dreams enough to share.

Verse:
Hey Mister Dreamseller where have you been,
Tell me have you dreams I can see?
I came a-long just to bring you this song,
Can you spare one dream for

G / D / Em / D /
Me?
