A
I met the man, when I was fifteen
Seen him in all the papers, on T.V. and magazines
So I had to ask him, what's the difference between
Those who make a wish, those who spin wheels
And those who ride in white limosines like you, mister
                           G D
Won't you tell me one thing

A
Some have the passion and they control the ride
Some settle for whatever happens
                              D           C      A
As years pass they see their lives just slip on by
The world keeps a' turning
It'll leave you behind
Nothing else matters, nothing's worth learning
Until the dream you have inside

Chorus:
         D              C                       A
It's the one thing, the one thing there's no denying
    D
So find yourself a dream and some piece of mind
A
'Cause money and power won't buy it
It's the one thing, nothing else matters

And somewhere you might have
heard the good times are through
And good luck is something you're born with
I know it just ain't true
The world keeps a' turning
I wouldn't tell you no lie
Nothing else matters, nothing's worth learning
Until the dream that you have inside

Chorus

Nothing else matters
