I've been [G]telling my [Cadd9]dreams to the [G][Cadd9]scarecrow

I say [Cadd9]"Friend do you [D]think I'll ever[Em] get there?"
Aw, [Cadd9]but he just stands there [D]smiling back at [G]me
So I confess [G]my sins [Cadd9]to the [G]preacher[Cadd9]
About the [F]love I've been [Bb]praying to [F]find[Bb]

Just [Cadd9]looking for my one chance [D]to run[G]
