I Dreamed There Was A Fountain

I Dreamed There was a Fountain
John Mark McMillan

Capo 1

VERSE 1:

D                               D  D/C#
  I dreamed there was a fountain
Bm
  I dreamed there was a vein
G
  That overcame the mountain
D
  Like a condescending rain

VERSE 2:
With love that's bigger than Los Angeles
With a speed that overcame the pain
Of a thousand left hand promises
Made by thieves with their good names

PRE CHORUS:

Bm
  There came a song upon a west wind
D  
  That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
G 
  Though ignorant inside their blessings
        A 
  But it broke their hearts, and they sang

CHORUS:

G      D          A
  Come drink this water
G      D          A
  Come drink this blood
G          D           A                    
  Come and drink this love
                         Bm
  that you could not afford

VERSE 3:
I stood and looked across the waters
Of a great Atlantic sea
I saw my sons I saw my daughters
It's like they had no tears to weep

PRE CHORUS:
There came a song upon a west wind
That kissed the lips of spoon-fed babes
Though ignorant inside their blessings
But it broke their hearts, and they sang

CHORUS:
G      D          A
  Come drink this water
G      D          A
  Come drink this blood
G          D           A                    
  Come and drink this love that you could not afford
G      D          A
  Come drink this water
G      D          A
  Come drink this blood
G          D           A                    
  Come and drink this love
                         Bm
  that you could not afford
