Verse 1:
G          D              Em
I close my eyes and I can see
                 C              G
The world that's waiting up for me
       D       C
That I call my own
G            D                 Em
 Through the dark, through the door
              C               G
Through where no one's been before
        D         C
But it feels like home

Pre-Chorus:
D                       Em     D          C
They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
D                       Em       D       C
They can say, they can say I've lost my mind
D                       Em      D       C
I don't care, I don't care, so call me crazy
D                  Em        D     C
We can live in a world that we design

Chorus:
       G
'Cause every night I lie in bed
    D   
The brightest colors fill my head
  Am                            C
A million dreams are keeping me awake
  G
I think of what the world could be
  D   
A vision of the one I see
  Am                               C
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
 N.C.
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

Verse 2:
G         D            Em
There's a house we can build
      C              G
Every room inside is filled
     D               C
With things from far away
G            D        Em
 The special things I compile
         C                 G
Each one there to make you smile
     D     C
On a rainy day

Pre-Chorus:
D                       Em     D          C
 They can say, they can say it all sounds crazy
D                       Em       D        C
 They can say, they can say we've lost our minds
D                       Em         D       C
 I don't care, I don't care if they call us crazy
D             Em         D    C
 Runaway to a world that we design

Chorus:
G
Every night I lie in bed
    D   
The brightest colors fill my head
  Am                            C
A million dreams are keeping me awake
  G
I think of what the world could be
  D   
A vision of the one I see
  Am                               C
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
N.C.
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

Bridge:
Em        B         G
 However big, however small
          A          C
Let me be part of it all
                       G G D    B
Share your dreams with me
Em          B                G
 You may be right, you may be wrong
                    A         C
But say that you'll bring me along
C                 G
To the world you see
G                       Am
To the world I close my eyes to see
            D
I close my eyes to see

Chorus:
G
Every night I lie in bed
D   
The brightest colors fill my head
  Am                            C
A million dreams are keeping me awake
 C 
A million dreams, a million dreams
  G
I think of what the world could be
  D   
A vision of the one I see
  Am                               C
A million dreams is all it's gonna take
 C                                         G D    Em C
A million dreams for the world we're gonna make

Outro:
For the world we're gonna make

this really helped me out to explore the ukulele music world. i already play the violin which is quite different than the ukulele. i really mastered this song in about a month and explored more music that’s more challenging than this. this song helped me become the musician i am now! i now play four instruments! The violin, ukulele, guitar and the piano! Thanks ukutabs i really appreciate it

Guest

Lillllly

I played violin then went into ukulele too! It seems to be a common combination!

Guest

Brooke

I went from ukulele to violin ?

Guest

Tunetube

I learned the violin and then went to the ukulele too! I also learn the drums, guitar, and piano. This is my favourite song to play on any instrument

Guest

Naomi

I’m like this too. im only twelve and ive just started my 12th instrument.

Guest

Livly

For the intro, finger pick the E and A string (Idk how to explain it, just try match it to the song) with the chords G and D and then the C and A string (same rhythm) with the chords Em and C :)

Guest

Zoe

omg god bless thank you so much

Guest

Katie

Why does everyone has such amazing usernames?????? I want mine to be March22ndIsEmoChristmas, but idk(hbtfm) to change it.

Guest

Libby

I love this arrangement of this song I just want to learn to fingerpick it. I think it’d sound really cool like that.

Guest

StarWarsFreak19

At the beginning, i did
A |-2-2-2-2|-0-0-0-0|-5-5-5-5|————|
E |3-3-3-3-|2-2-2-2-|0-0-0-0-|-3-3-3-3|
C |————|————|————|0-0-0-0-|

and did the same thing at the end after the last line doing the same thing but a little slower and ended on a G chord

Guest

StarWarsFreak19

sorry forgot to add this but i did the intro twice before starting

Guest

Tunetube

The easiest picking pattern is to pluck the E and A strings in order with these chords

G, D, Em7, C

You can also use these for the verses. It sounds really good

Guest

Brody

If you don’t want to use the finger picking technique, I would suggest using slow tempo half strums with a full downstrum emphasis on the third strum of each phrase! Worked well for me! :)

Guest

heather

what is the drumming pattern

Guest

UkuTigerGirl

In -7 can we change the E major chord to Em or does that sound right? Has anybody played it on -7 with Em instead of E

Guest

MissApollo

UkuTigerGirl I tried the Em instead of E it sounded like it was off. You could play it that way though. But if you were going to play it for a concert or post it online, I would play the E chord.

Guest

UkuTigerGirl

Thankyou so much! That was definitely helpful:)
