Dream On
normal tuning.
thugs and badmen
punks and lifers
knocked up interns
pigs and snitches
rest your weary heads, all is well
B
you won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight
A
you won't be cut up, bleeding tonight
B
you won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones
A
wishing you were anywhere else but right here
E ------ A
so dream on
E
thieves and muggers
A
tricks and hustlers
E
cheats and traitors
A
scum and low-lives
B A
rest your weary heads, all is well
B
you won't be sad or broken tonight
A
you won't be squealed on, ripped up tonight
B
you won't be back-stabbed, double crossed, face down
A
teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere
E ------ A
so dream on
E
freaks and junkies
A
fakes and phonies
E
drunks and cowards
A
manic preachers
B A
rest your weary heads, all is well
B
you won't be pushed or messed with tonight
A
you won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight
B
you won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
A
aimlessly wandering through the dark night
E ------ A
so dream on
E (to the end)

version 2
This is a really basic 3-chord song, E A B. I play it on my acoustic guitar,
barring/power chording the chords except for the "so dream on" chorus parts
to give it more impact. The below lyrics use the music video ending, which
cuts off sooner than the album end. Listen to the song; she switches up the
way she spaces the "dream on" parts each time.
E - 779xxx - 022100 on "dream on"
A - 577xxx - 002220 on "dream on"
B - 799xxx
The structure is thus:
E A E A
B A B A
B A E A (plus extra E A for any extra "dream on"s)
-------------------------------
E A
Thugs and bad men, punks and lifers
Locked up interns, pigs and snitches

Rest your weary heads, all is well

You won't be strip-searched, torn up tonight

You won't be cut up, bleeding tonight

You won't be strung out, cold, shaking to your bones
A
Wishing you were anywhere else but right here
E A
So dream on (dream on)
Thieves and muggers, tricks and hustlers
Cheats and traitors, scum and low-lifes
Rest your weary heads, all is well
You won't be sad or broken tonight
You won't be squealed on, ripped off tonight
You won't be back-stabbed, double crossed, face down
Teeth knocked out, lying in a gutter somewhere
E A
So dream on
E A
So dream on
E A E A
Freaks and junkies, fakes and phonies
Drunks and cowards, manic preachers
Rest your weary heads, all is well
You won't be pushed or messed with tonight
You won't be lied to, ruffed up tonight
You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
Aimlessly wandering through the dark night
E A
So dream on, so dream on

You won't be insane, paranoid, obsessed
A
Aimlessly wandering through the dark night
E
So dream on
