i dreamed there was a fountain
john mark mcmillan
capo 1
verse 1 :
D
i dreamed there was a fountain
Bm
i dreamed there was a vein
G
that overcame the mountain
D
like a condescending rain
verse 2 :
with love that’s bigger than los angeles
with a speed that overcame the pain
of a thousand left hand promises
made by thieves with their good names
pre chorus :
Bm
there came a song upon a west wind
D
that kissed the lips of spoon – fed babes
G
though ignorant inside their blessings
A
but it broke their hearts , and they sang
chorus :
G D A
come drink this water
G D A
come drink this blood
G D A
come and drink this love
Bm
that you could not afford
verse 3 :
i stood and looked across the waters
of a great atlantic sea
i saw my sons i saw my daughters
it’s like they had no tears to weep
pre chorus :
there came a song upon a west wind
that kissed the lips of spoon – fed babes
though ignorant inside their blessings
but it broke their hearts , and they sang
chorus :
G D A
come drink this water
G D A
come drink this blood
G D A
come and drink this love that you could not afford
G D A
come drink this water
G D A
come drink this blood
G D A
come and drink this love
Bm
that you could not afford
