[Intro]
Bm  D  x4


[Verse 1]
        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
          Bm           D
Who gave you the right
                 Bm    D
to give out the rights
                    G         D
and to intrude upon my dreams
                 Bm  D
and sell out my eyes


[Chorus]
     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


[Verse 2]
   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
    Bm                    D
In Victoria, Gare du Nord
              Bm     D
and Tompkin's Square
                   G         D
you're stealing on my dreams
               Bm  D
and you don't care


[Chorus]
     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


[Verse 3]
  D         Bm
A heartbeat
          D            Bm
tears my insides apart
                G         D
and tears apart my dreams
                Bm   D
in the whirling dark
   Bm             D
I never got to go
         Bm      D
I cannot make it
               G          D
I never get to have dreams
                Bm     D
and I will not take it


[Chorus]
     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
     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


[Outro]
          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
