Every night I hear you scream, but you don't say what you mean
Every night I think I know, in the morning where did it go?

This was my dream, but now my dream has flown.
The answers disappear when I open my eyes.

After the 1st chorus Noel plays this solo over the introduction chords

(you can use a tremelo on the final note of the solo for authentic effect)
The first verse is then repeated, and the chorus is played through twice, but missing
the second 'I will keep the dream alive' and staying on A.
This solo is then played after the second chorus repeat over the chorus chords.

The chorus chords are then played as Liam sing Na na na na na nanah x4, then the song
breaks down and stays on A to fade.
I hope this tab is accurate enough, and enjoy playing!
