"Street of Dreams" is a song by the American rock band Guns N' Roses, featured on their 2008 album Chinese Democracy. The song is the third promotional song sent to radio stations, but was not released as a commercial single eligible for international Singles charts. From 2001 to 2008, the song was called "The Blues", but was changed to "Street of Dreams" for the album's release.

The song was originally written in 1999 by the band's leader and lead vocalist Axl Rose, but bassist Tommy Stinson and keyboardist Dizzy Reed contributed some of the guitar, bass and piano melodies.

"Street of Dreams" was a staple at Guns N' Roses concerts since 2001, being played at almost every show on the various Chinese Democracy Tours and on the Up Close and Personal Tour in 2012. Although it was part of the initial concerts for the Appetite for Democracy tour, featuring on the Appetite for Democracy 3D live album, the song left the set list and was not played during the Not In This Lifetime... Tour. After being missing from the setlist for 10 years, it was performed for the first time with the reunited lineup in June 18, 2022 in Prague.
