Josh Ritter - All some kind of dream

^CI saw my brother in a ^Amstranger's face I^F saw my sister in a sm^Gile M^Cy mother's laughter in^Am a far off place M^Fy father's footsteps ^Gin each mile I^Am thought I knew who my^Em neighbor was We^F didn't need to be r^Gedeemed O^Ch, what could I have been^Am thinking of? ^FWas it all ^Gsome kind of d^Cream?

^CI saw my country in the ^Amhungry eyes ^FOf a million refu^Ggees B^Cetween the rocks and the ^Amrising tide A^Fs they were tossed across ^Gthe sea T^Amhere was a time when we we^Emre them J^Fust as now they all are^G we W^Cas there an hour when we took ^Amthem in? ^FOr was it a^Gll some kind o^Cf dream?

I^C saw the children in the ho^Amlding pens I^F saw the families ripped^G apart A^Cnd though I try I canno^Amt begin T^Fo know what it did inside^G their hearts T^Amhere was a time when we held ^Emthem close A^Fnd weren't so cruel, low, an^Gd mean A^Cnd we did good unto the least o^Amf those O^Fr was it al^Gl some kind of^C dream?

^CI saw justice with a tatter^Amed hem ^FI saw compassion on the r^Gun ^CBut I saw dignity in spite^Am of them I^F prayed its day would finall^Gy come T^Amhere was a time when we chos^Eme our sides A^Fnd we refused to live betw^Geen W^Ce rose to fight for what we k^Amnew was right O^Fr was it al^Gl some kind of^C dream?

^CLast night I lay in my true love^Am's bed ^FAnd she lay there close be^Gside A^Cnd we lay thinking âbout what ^Amlay ahead A^Fnd wondering if the sun woul^Gd rise F^Amor it seems that these are da^Emrker days T^Fhan any others that we'v^Ge seen ^COh, how we wished that we weren't^Am wide awake A^Fnd this was^G all some kind^C of dream O^Ch, how we wished that we weren't w^Amide awake An^Fd this was ^Gall some kind ^Cof dream
