[Intro]
Cadd9 G D x2
[Verse 1]
Cadd9 G D G
The dream is a paycheck at the end of the week
Cadd9 G D
Waitin' tables, makin' small talk out back on your break
Cadd9 G D G
The dream is a one bedroom walk-up apartment
Cadd9 G D
Cheap Christmas lights out on the fire escape
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Oh, the one thing I've learned is that the world keeps on spinnin'
Cadd9 G
Love's the only thing that makes it go 'round
Em7 Cadd9
I've given it all with the time I've been given
I'm out here livin'
D
Ain't we all just livin'?
[Verse 2]
Cadd9 G D G
The dream is a cigarette out the car window
Cadd9 G D G
After he tells you you ain't what he wants
Cadd9 G D G
The dream is a ride home, can't say you didn't try
Cadd9 G D G
But those stars in L.A. ain't as bright as you thought
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Oh, the one thing I've learned is that the world keeps on spinnin'
Cadd9 G
Love's the only thing that makes it go 'round
Em7 Cadd9
I've given it all with the time I've been given
I'm out here livin'
D
Ain't we all just livin'?
[Bridge]
Cadd9
Oh, the dream
G
Baby, those wings
Em7
Ain't the only way to fly
D
Ain't the only way to cry
Cadd9
Ain't the only way you'll ever get
You'll ever get high
[Break]
Cadd9 G D G x2
[Chorus]
Cadd9 G
Oh, the one thing I've learned is that the world keeps on spinnin'
Cadd9 G
Love's the only thing that makes it go 'round
Em7 Cadd9
I've given it all with the time I've been given
Em7 Cadd9
Years down to days down to even a minute
G
The heartaches, the big breaks
Cadd9 G
The wrong turns, the mistakes
Cadd9
That lead to the laugh lines
G
The highlights, the blessings
Cadd9
I'm out here livin'
D
Ain't we all down here livin'
Cadd9 G D
The dream?
Cadd9 G
Livin' the dream
D Cadd9 G
I'm livin' the dream
D Cadd9 G
Just livin' the dream
