On The Wings Of A Dream chords Guitar Chords By John Denver

[Intro]
D D A E7

[Verse 1]
       A            E          A
Yesterday I had a dream about dying
       C#m        E              A
About laying to rest and then flying
         D         A          E                    A     E7
How the moment at hand is the only thing we really own
       A         E         A
And I lay in my bed and I wondered
      C#m            E           A
After all has been said and is done for
  D         A          E                       A
Why is it thus we are here and so soon we are gone?


[Chorus]
     D                                                         A
Is this life just a path to the place that we all have come from?
          D                                             A
Does the heart know the way and if not, can it ever be found?
       D                                         A E D D A E7
In a smile or a tear or a prayer or a sigh or a song?

[Verse 2]
        A          E           A
And if so, then I sing for my father
         C#m             E           A
And in truth you must know I would rather
         D          A               E                     A     E7
He were here by my side; we could fly on the wings of a dream
       A               E           A
To a place where the spirit would find us
        C#m         E            A
And in joy and surrender would bind us
       D       A       E                       A
We are one anyway, anyway we are more than we seem


[Chorus]
            D                                                  A
There are those who will lead us, protect us each step of the way
        D                                              A
From beginning to end, for each moment, forever, each day
        D                                           A E D D A E7
Such a gift has been given, it can never be taken away

[Instrumental]
A E A C#m E A D A E A E7

[Verse 3]
            A       E            A
Though the body in passing must leave us
         C#m         E          A
There is one who remains to receive us
            D            A             E                        A     E7
There are those in this life who are friends from our heavenly home
      A             E        A
So I listen to the voices inside me
        C#m            E             A
For I know they are there just to guide me
        D               A          E                 A
And my faith would proclaim it is so, we are never alone


[Chorus]
          D                                                    A
From the life to the light, from the dark of the night to the dawn
       D                                             A
He is so in my heart, he is here, he could never be gone
            D                                                 A E D         D A E7
Though the singer is silent, there still is the truth of the song. . .in the song

[Verse 4]
       A            E          A
Yesterday I had a dream about dying
       C#m        E              A
About laying to rest and then flying
         D         A          E                    A     E7
How the moment at hand is the only thing we really own
       A         E         A
And I lay in my bed and I wondered
      C#m            E           A
After all has been said and is done for
  D         A          E                       A
Why is it thus we are here and so soon we are gone?
      D         A          E7                      A
Oh, why is it thus we are here and so soon we are gone?
