McGinty - Sonny dream

^CSonny lives on a farm, on a wide open space ^Cyou can take^F off your^C sneekers, and give up the race yo^Gu can lay down your head, by a sweet river bed But S^Fonny always ^Crem^Gembers, what it was his mama said......

^CSonny carries a load, He is barely a man ^Cthere ain^Ft a-lot t^Co do, still he does what he can an^Gd he watches the sea, from a room by the stairs an^Fd the waves kee^Cp on^G rollin, they've done that for years.....

^CSonny don't go away, I am here all alone ^Cand your Dadd^Fy's a s^Cailor who never comes home an^Gd the nights get so long, and the silence goes on and I'^Fm feeling so ti^Cred,^G I'm not all that strong.....

^DWell its a hundred miles to town, Sonny's never been there ^Dand he goes to^G the ^Dhighway and stands there and stares an^Ad the mail comes at four, and the mailman is old aww b^Gut, he still dreams his dreams, full of silve^Dr a^And gold....

^DSonny's dreams can't be real, there just stories he's read ^Dthere just stars i^Gn his^D eyes, there just dreams in his head and ^Ahe's hungry inside, for the wide world outside an^Gd I know i ca^Dn't hold^A him, Oh I've tried and I tried and I tried
