intro:	4x Bm  D (first two times guitar only)


        Bm  D
What I say
            Bm     D
you cannot hear it
                    G         D
so you intrude upon my dreams
               Bm      D
and hate my appearance


Who gave you the right
to give out the rights
and to intrude upon my dreams
and sell out my eyes


         Em             G
    You can't take my dreams
         Em             G
    you can't take my dreams
         Em    G         Em    G        D     Bm   D   Bm
    you can't take and steal from this body


   D                  Bm
I never get a chance
        D       Bm
in the airport
                       G           D
sick in bathroom with your dreams
                 Bm      D
and a flight to nowhere


In Victoria, Gare du Nord
and Tompkin's Square
you're stealing on my dreams
and you don't care

   
    You can't take my dreams
    you can't take my dreams
    you can't take and steal from this body


A heartbeat
tears my insides apart
and tears apart my dreams
in the whirling dark

I never got to go
I cannot make it
I never get to have dreams
and I will not take it

   
    You can't take my dreams
    you can't take my dreams
    you can't take and steal from this body

    You can't take my dreams
    you can't take my dreams
    you can't take and steal from this body

                                        D    Bm
                             from this body
                                        D         Bm
              they were supposed to be my dreams
                                        D         Bm
              they were supposed to be my dreams
                                        D         Bm
              they were supposed to be my dreams  .....
