version 2
NOTE: This is set up like traditional sheet music so you can have easy access on one page
without problems. So there are three verses with the same basic chordal structure,
and you can see them lined up to show the similarity. I like this better
but of course it is not typical anymore. If this is new to you, follow the
numbered lines. For example, the first verse goes
"There was a dream
I had it too
you could see it coming true."
This is shown below by following line "1" all the way through.
