very nice song ... yest it kinda stuck to my mind ... i searched the internet and found half-cooked "tabs" ... each of 'em having solo entirely/partially wrong ... so i decided to play + tab the solo ... for the completness, though, i have included the chords to the song (which i have lifted from some "tab") ... it is an extremely melodic song ... and best of all playable on the acoustic ... infact the leads can also be played on acoustic except for the string bends and vibratos which can be slightly harsh on the fingers ... enuff ... here it goes ... (ok i saw in the preview window that the spacing is not coming good ... so i'll attach the text file along also ...) #----------------------------------PLEASE NOTE--------------------------------# #This file is the author's own work and represents their interpretation of the# #song.

Title: Dreamer Album: Down to Earth (2001) Transcribed by: ssslayer@gmail.com /****************************************************************************** The Guitar used by Zakk Wylde is 1/2 step (1 fret higher tuned) so the tuning of the guitar would be e# b# g# D# A# E# however, here it has been displayed as if on normal tuning For playing along the track, capo on the first fret ******************************************************************************/ This is kinda non-spoon-feeding tab ... so only the chords have been listed. How those chords are being played, u'll havta make out from the song. The solo in the end is complete (with nuances). Chords/lyrix have been lifted/compiled from various other tabs on the web C Am Gazing through the window at the world outside C Am Wondering will mother earth survive F Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Hoping that mankind will stop abusing her, sometime C Am After all there's only just the two of us C Am And here we are still fighting for our lives F Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Watching all of history repeat itself, time after time C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj I dream my life away C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj(Once, then stop and let ring) Who dreams of better days C Am I watch the sun go down like everyone of us C Am I'm hoping that the dawn will bring a sign F Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj A better place for those Who will come after us, this time C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj I dream my life away C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Who dreams of better days Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Your higher power may be God or Jesus Christ Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj It doesn't really matter much to me Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Without each others help there ain't no hope for us Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj I'm living in a dream of fantasy, C Am oh yeah, yeah, yeah C Am C Am F Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj /* Solo in the end */ C Am If only we could all just find serenity C Am It would be nice if we could live as one F Dm Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj When will all this anger, hate and biggotry, be gone? C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj I dream my life away, today C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Who dreams of better days, oh yay C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj Who's searching for the way, today C I'm just a dreamer Am Em Gmaj-Gsus4-Gmaj C(Once, Let ring.)
