These are the chords the sheet music for Aerosmith's "Dream On" uses.  The
music was arranged for piano/vocal/ guitar, which means the fingerings for
the guitar chords are completely off.  Use your favorite chord dictionary
to find the right fingerings.
 
"|" stands for the bar line between measures.  There are two chords to a
measure for most of this song.  For the intro, alternate between the chord
and the bass note C.
