Keith Potger – The Gingerbread Man Ukulele Chords

Early this morning I woke from a dream
I dreamt of a valley that I would never seen
A magical place in a faraway land
With a gingerbread house and a gingerbread man

He seemed to know me, to my surprise
The gingerbread man was incredibly wise

We walked through that valley and sat by a stream
He told me that nothing’s as bad as it seems
Nothing is perfect and nothing will last
Live in the moment but cherish the past

He told me that life gets harder to live
Whenever we blame and never forgive

And now as I lie here awake in my bed
I can recall every word that he said
“Whatever you do, do the best that you can”
That is what he told me, the gingerbread man.

And he said: “Sometimes life won’t go to plan, it happens.
If someone asks for help some day, it could be you, don’t turn away.”

So whatever you do, do the best that you can
That is what I learned from the gingerbread man
It was only a dream in a faraway land
But we can all learn from the gingerbread man.
“Whatever you do, do the best that you can”
Yes we can all learn from the gingerbread man
