He says, "I'm just a man, I work with my hands
G             C                 G    C
But lately no work has been around
  D                 C              G
I wish that I could put more on the table
  C         G                C              D
Provide the life I'm sure my family dreams about"

"But there's cracks in all the walls and all the windows

I just pray that hope will go on living

She says, "my husband's a good man
G              C
Gives all that he can
G          C                    G   C
I know he thinks he's let me down
      D                 C               G
I just want him and the children to be happy
C               G              C            D
It's not always easy, but it's all I dream about"

"So I'll find some yard-sale curtains for the windows
         C                D             G
And I'll sew some yellow trim along the seams
    C                D                 G
And I'll keep praying hope will go on living
C            D                     G  
In this house of a thousand dreams"

The boy says, "my daddy's a strong man
G             C
My momma, she loves him
G                C                      G
And they love my brother and sister and me
    D                 C                G
Sometimes at night we lay out in the backyard
C              G          C                  D
And take turns wishing on the first star we see"

         C               D                 G
"And the crickets always sing outside the windows
      C               D                     G
And I love to feel the wind blow through the screen
    C                D           G
And I sure hope that we can live forever
C            D                  G
In this house of a thousand dreams"
      C                D              G
"Yeah I sure hope that we can live forever
C             D                  G
In this house of a thousand dreams"
