~ SONG NOTE ~
Second to last line on verse 3 "To fly from the highest wing",
she holds the F for 8 counts rather than playing a G after the C like in previous chorus.
 
************************************
 
 
[Verse 1]
C                   F
I was a little girl alone in my little world
     Am                          F
who dreamed of a little home for me
C
I played pretend between the trees,
    F
and fed my house guests bark and leaves
    Am                          F
and laughed in my pretty bed of green
 
 
[Chorus]
         C
I had a dream
         Em               F
That I could fly from the highest swing,
        C  G  F
I had a dream
 
 
[Verse 2]
C                              F
Long walks in the dark through woods grown behind the park,
    Am                    F
I ask God who I'm supposed to be
    C
The stars smiled down on me,
     F                            Am
God answered in silent reverie. I said a prayer
         F
and fell asleep
 
 
[Chorus]
         C
I had a dream
         Em               F
That I could fly from the highest swing,
        C  G  F
I had a dream
 
 
[Bridge]
C  G   Am  F  (x4)
Oooo   Ooooo
 
 
[Verse 3]
C
Now I'm old and feeling grey
   F                             Am
I don't know what's left to say about this life
               F      C
I'm willing to leave. I lived it full and I lived it well
  F
There's many tales I've lived to tell
   Am             F              G
I'm ready now, I'm ready now, I'm ready now
   C   G        F
To fly from the highest wing
       C
I had a dream

this is perfect, the picking patterns isn't hard at all, basicly she just picks three strings all the time, one two three one two three.. the two strings that never change are the 4th and 5th string. the thumb picks the bass note all the time so that one varies, depending on the chord you're picking. for a C it's on the 2nd string, etc. def not out of key, i play this with the album recording and it's the exact one. the capo is on the 2nd fret if anyone forgot to read that.. that helps for the key :P haha.

Swemillans right, it's perfect with the capo and the picking. I think there's a G between C and F in the end of the chorus if I'm not mistaken. And it is swing the first chorus, tree in the second one and wing the third time.

Sounds great to me when fingerpicked. I've been playing it the same way swemillan said and it sounds right.
