I have made this tab on November 3, 2008 based on the world premier
of this song by Bruce in Cleveland for an Obama rally. This is
not necessarily the version that will be released on the album
due in 2009.
Simple song, only 4 chords: G,C, D, Dsus
CAPO 3RD FRET
GCG
I hear the nights are long the days are longer
DDsus
I think of you and...I'm working on a dream
GC
I'm working on a dream
GCG
Now the cards I've drawn are rough and darkened
DDsus
I've straightened the back and...I'm working on a dream
G
I'm working on a dream
CHORUS
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, though sometimes it feels so far away
CDDsusD
I'm working on a dream, and I know it will be mine someday
GCG
Rain pouring down I swing the hammer
DDsus
My hands are rough from...working on a dream
G
Working on a dream
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, though trouble can feel like its here to stay
CDDsusD
I'm working on a dream, our love will chase the trouble away
*Then he whistles for a bit*
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away
CDDsusD
I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday
GCG
The sun rises up and I climb the ladder
DDsus
A new day breaks and....I'm working on a dream
GD
I'm working on a dream
GD
I'm working on a dream
G
I'm working on a dream
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday
CGC
I'm working on a dream, though it can feel so far away
CGCG
I'm working on a dream, our love will make it real someday
