Josh Ritter – All Some Kind Of Dream (Guitar Solo Tab)

C                       Am
  I saw my brother in a stranger's face

F                      G
  I saw my sister in a smile

C                           Am
  My mother's laughter in a far off place

F                               G
  My father's footsteps in each mile

Am                        Em
  I thought I knew who my neighbor was

F                        G
  We didn't need to be redeemed

C                            Am
  Oh, what could I have been thinking of?

F        G                C
  Was it all some kind of dream?

C                         Am
  I saw my country in the hungry eyes

F                  G
  Of a million refugees

C                           Am
  Between the rocks and the rising tide

F                                G
  As they were tossed across the sea

Am                      Em
  There was a time when we were them

F                          G
  Just as now they all are we

C                           Am
  Was there an hour when we took them in?

F           G                C
  Or was it all some kind of dream?

C                           Am
  I saw the children in the holding pens

F                            G
  I saw the families ripped apart

C                        Am
  And though I try, I cannot begin

F                                  G
  To know what it did inside their hearts

Am                         Em
  There was a time when we held them close

F                                G
  And weren't so cruel, low, and mean

C                          Am
  And we did good unto the least of those

F           G                C
  Or was it all some kind of dream?

C                      Am
  I saw justice with a tattered hem

F                         G
  I saw compassion on the run

C                      Am
  But I saw dignity in spite of them

F                                G
  I prayed its day would finally come

Am                         Em
  There was a time when we chose our sides

F                          G
  And we refused to live between

C                              Am
  We rose to fight for what we knew was right

F           G                C
  Or was it all some kind of dream?

C                        Am
  Last night I lay in my true love's bed

F                           G
  And she lay there close beside

C                                Am
  And we lay thinking 'bout what lay ahead

F                                G
  And wondering if the sun would rise

Am                            Em
  For it seems that these are darker days

F                            G
  Than any others that we've seen

C                                   Am
  Oh, how we wished that we weren't wide awake

F              G                C
  And this was all some kind of dream

C                                   Am
  Oh, how we wished that we weren't wide awake

F              G                C
  And this was all some kind of dream
