These Dreams Chords & Lyrics - Ed Sheeran

[VERSE 1]
[G]I keep my hopes and dreams [C]inside of you

amongst the other things [G]my mother seems to never see

the [Gm]bruises that I'm covering,

[C]Never been known by my [F]government name,

my foster [D]home is where I've been placed [Em]away from the pain,

so as you [G]sit before me with a f[C]older holding my story,

you're my s[A]aviour with nothing on me but [D]power and glory,

And [G]surely you'll never [C]ignore me

cos when the the court [B]came the court date was made to [G]disappear for me,

[C]You think you understand me but [D]never what I went through

[G]but you were never meant to [C]I won't hold it against you,

[G]I take a ballpoint [C]pen to play dot to dot [G]with the cigarette burns [D]etched in my forearms,

[G]Forget me not never let me [Em]stop you'll just sit and watch

[G]It's your job to be [C]patient so you'll let me off,

[CHORUS]
[G]So come with me take a [D]walk on the wild side,[G] see life in a [B]day through a child's eyes,

[C]And these [Am]dreams are [G]all [Em] I have, [D] [Em]to hold [G]me,

[C]When [Am]sleeps the [G]only [Em] thing that I [D]want to take me [Em]away, away,


[VERSE 2]

[G]Okay sessions over time [C]to get back to the classroom I [G]hate this lesson and

I guess the [Gm]teacher finds it hard to,

[C]You told me I should try my [F]best but guess what[Em] I still find this trigonome[G]try a head fuck,

[C]Constantly told I won't pass my [B]GCSE's,

I'll end [G]up in Mac D's serving [C]burgers and cheese,

But you [F]told me I can do an[C]ything if I put my mind to it,

[G]Mistakes make a change [Em]if you put a line through 'em,

[C]Lately class[G]mates think I'm crazy [Em]turn up daily resem[A]bling bill bailey,

[G]And I ain't saying that I [C]can't be groomed with it wi[Em]thout new clothes or shower it [D]hard to do,

So [Gm]after school you'll take me shopping [C]for some new clothes

[G]but they'll get taken off me when I [D]get back to the group home,


[CHORUS]
[G]So come with me take a [D]walk on the wild side,[G] see life in a [B]day through a child's eyes,

[C]And these [Am]dreams are [G]all [Em] I have, [D] [Em]to hold [G]me,

[C]When [Am]sleeps the [G]only [Em] thing that I [D]want to take me [Em]away, away,
