BOOK OF MAGIC Capo Strings (6-1) E F# B F# B D

One day I'm going to sit down and write a book of magic and wonderous light, wonderous light
I’ve had the idea for some time now I’m going to get myself together and find a way to get it down somehow, somehow
i’m in a place that I don’t want to be, I’m going to write my book and hope it sets me free, sets me free

When I’m walking out on the street, people I know, people I meet
Say “why do you do it, what is it that you need? why do you keep on chasing your dream when there’s mouths to feed?
One day I'm going to sit down and write a book of magic and wonderous light, wonderous light
Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer

I'm going to pit a boy against evil, I’m going to make the story believable, you’ll see, I’m going to find a way
It's going to be about the dark and the light and having the courage to stand up for what you think is right, and save the day

People I know who know me well say “what is this story you’ve got to tell”
“Why do you sit there, night after day, chasing your dream when there’s bills to pay
One day I'm going to sit down and write a book of magic and wonderous light, wonderous light
Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer

Don't burst my bubble I live inside it, don't blow away my cloud nine, I just want ride it, ride it,
One day I'm going to sit down and write a book of magic and wonderous light, wonderous lightht

I put the rejection slips in a drawer, every time I get one, I just send out more copies to read
I know some people think I'm wasting my time but whats the harm in it, it's not a crime, it's what I need

Time means nothing if your heart stands still, freedom is nothing without free will
Friends and lovers can help you look but only you can write your own book
One day I'm going to sit down and write a book of magic and wonderous light, wonderous light
Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer

How was I to know, I’d get my break from a young girl who’d stayed awake
Told her father, “thanks for the lend, I’ve loved these first three chapters you bought me
Now all I want to know is how does the the story end, how does it end?”
Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer, Dreamer
