Chords

[Verse 1]
D
When I was a boy

Bb                A
Hardly more than 10 years old

D                    Bb      A
My family moved to a smalltown

     D                       Bb                 A
And I was destroyed leaving all my friends behind

        D                          G
And if I had the choice we'd have stayed put

          Gm
It's only now I can see

          G                      A
Sometimes a little change can be good
[Verse 2]
D
At the end of the block

Bb              A
The ramshackle diner stood

   D                         Bb    A
My after school spot just to pass time

      D                   Bb              A
Where I met a girl nearly three times my age

              D                         G
Aut still she painted my world with her kind words

    Em
And soft curls

       G
Just a schoolboy crush

        A
But you remind me of her
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm     G
She saw something in me

      Bm                A
I was lonely and misunderstood

A                             G
She'd ask me to write down my wildest schemes

          Em                 G
And over slices of blueberry pie

          A
I learned to dream
[Chorus]
          D                        F#m
She'd say what good's a dreamer without a believer?

   G                        Em
We all just need someone to care

A                        A/G
One who might listen and root for our wishes

G                    Gm/Bb
Someone to simply be glad that we're there

D                     F#m
What good's a hand if nobody needs holding?

     G                      E
When everything else falls away

   Em                  Gm                    D
If no one believes her what good's a dreamer anyway?
[Interlude] D/F# Dm/F D5/E D D/F# Dm/F A/C# [Verse 3]
      D
Thank god for that place

   Bb          A
It practically saved me

      D                            Bb           A
Those school kids sure didn't take kind to this stranger

    D                         G         A
And I was eccentric all grand plans and inventions

     Bm         A            G
That I would've just thrown away

   Gm                        A
By listening she let me have something to say
[Chorus]
D                        F#m
What good's a dreamer without a believer?

   G                        Em
We all just need someone to care

A7                       Em/G
One who might listen and root for our wishes

G          G/B       Bb
Someone to simply be glad that we're there

D                     F#m
What good's a hand if nobody needs holding?

     G                      E
When everything else falls away

   Em                  G                     D   D/F#  Dm/F  A  D
If no one believes her what good's a dreamer anyway?
