[Verse 1]
B
Well, I walked along and I felt like pretending
    B
The earth stopped moving and nothing was ending
  G#m
I saw the beggar boys in different places
G#m
They wore dirty rags and filthy faces
B
I told them 'hello' and they came and they followed
  B
I gave them my bread and they chewed and the swallowed
G#m
And they picked me up and took my hand
    G#m
And I never felt like a better man

[Chorus]
      F#
Well, love was just a dream
    E                   B
You know I never got no sleep
F#                            E                    B
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

[Verse 2]
      B
Well, we talked all night and I felt very tired
   B
So I laid down and I looked at the fire
G#m
And I thought about nothing at all
    G#m
And then in the morning I was up at dawn
   B
We talked to the people who wanted to hide us
B
Nothing they said then could ever divide us
G#m
And I pulled out everything I know
      G#m
And I never ever went back home

[Chorus]
      F#
Well, love was just a dream
    E                   B
You know I never got no sleep
F#                            E                    B
Walking hand in hand with the beggar boys down the street

[Verse 3]
      B
I was you (you were me)
B
He was she (she was he)
B
They were us (we were they)
B
It was real (we were free)
      G#m
I was God (God is cool)
G#m
God is you (God is me)
G#m
I was one (we were two)
G#m
They were three (three is three)
      B
I was me (you were you)
B
Love was us (we were love)
B
I was gone (you were there)
B
You were here (I was everywhere)
      G#m
I was this (this is me)
G#m
I was young (you were old)
G#m
I was hot (you were cold)
G#m
I was all (You were everything)

Well, love was just a dream
    E                   B
You know I never got no sleep
