E
I see the power
D
Changin' hands
E                  D   A
Risin' from the streets
E            D
A self-made businessman
E
Knows how the system can be beat

Bm
Oh, we're the lost generation
G                 D
Have no place to go
Bm
The road to destruction
   G                 D
Is all we need to know

               Em     G D
'Cause it's a rip off
                  A          Em   G D
We're stripped, drawn, and cheated
             A         Em   G D
We're flat stone cold lied to
           A          Em
But we're not defeated
 G D   Em
Nooo, sir

Easy money
It's the way out
Join the Family
No middleman
No I.R.S
Your ticket out of poverty

Oh, we're the lost generation
I hold fate from a string
Lookin' for direction
Reachin' out for anything, so

Chorus:
G
Dream another dream
              Bm   D
This dream is over (oooh oooh oh)
G
Dream another dream

This dream is over (dream another dream)
G
Dream another dream
              Bm   D
This dream is over (oooh) over yeah,
(dream another dream)
C                  Em
So dream another dream

Oh, it's a rip off
We're stepped on an' cheated
Flat stone cold lied to
We're not defeated, noooo

Chorus:
Dream another dream
This dream is over (oooh oooh oh)
Dream another dream
This dream is over (dream another dream)
Dream another dream
This dream is over, (oooh oooh oh) oh
Dream another dream
This dream is over, over yeah
(dream another dream)
Dream another dream, (ooh ooh ooh)
Dream another dream,
(dream another dream, oooh ooh ooh)
Dream another dream, oh
This dream's all over (dream another dream)
Dream another dream, (dream another dream)
Dream another dream...
