C C Am F
C C Am F
[Verse]
C Am
I had this dream in which
F Am Bb
I swam with dolphins
F G F
In open sea a transparent blue
C
maybe you dreamt it too
C Am
And on the earth the trees
F Am
grew heavy with blossoms
Bb F
The rainforests had not died
G
And the Amazon shined like an emerald
[Chorus]
C Bb F
Somewhere somehow some way
G
We must hold back the dawn
C Bb Dm
While there's still time to try
C
Keep the faith, keep the dream alive
[Interlude]
F F G
[Verse]
C
I had this dream
Am
(I had this dream)
F Bb
That we were all one family
F G
Which war and famine could not undo
G
Maybe you dreamt it too
C Am
Our family name was either
Kindness or Compassion
Bb F
We recognized each other
G
And we recognized
The light inside us
[Chorus]
C Bb F
Somewhere somehow some way
G
We must hold back the dawn
C Bb
While there's
Dm
still time to try
Keep the faith,
C
keep the dream alive
[Chorus]
C Bb F
Somewhere somehow some way
G
We must hold back the dawn
C Bb
While there's
Dm
still time to try
Keep the faith,
C
keep the dream alive
[Interlude]

Listen, the cry for freedom
E Ebm D Db
Echoes from Red Squeare to Soweto town

The barricades are broken now
Dm7 C
The walls are tumbling down
[Chorus]
C Bb F
Somewhere somehow some way
G
We must hold back the dawn
C Bb Dm
While there's still time to try
C
Keep the faith, keep the dream alive
[Chorus]
C Bb F
Somewhere somehow some way
G
We must hold back the dawn
C Bb Dm
While there's still time to try
C
Keep the faith, keep the dream alive

I woke up to find,
Ab
it was just a dream
Db
I knew in my mind,
Ab
it was just a dream
Db
I woke up to find,
Ab
it was just a dream
Db
I knew in my mind,
Ab
it was just a dream
