[C] I'm looking at the radio caught up in a dream.
[G] Now the day's gone by with no one had a TV.
[F] _ Hoping that the weatherman will say good things.
[G] Like no rain on Friday for the drive-in [C] movie.
Little kids didn't have a care.
[G] There was love growing up _ everywhere.
[F] But when I opened my eyes and the dreams stopped [G] playing.
You can still find me somewhere [C] saying.
I should have been [F] born in 45. _
[Am] _ _ 54 [G] I would have been [C] nine.
Watch the photos, [F] heard a seal get tied.
[Am] Dancing in the moonlight.
[G] _ _ That would [C] have been nice.
Ooh, [F] ooh, ooh.
Ooh, [A] ooh, ooh.
[G] Oh, oh, oh.
That would [C] have been nice.
Ooh, ooh, [F] ooh.
Ooh, [A] ooh, ooh.
_ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] Boombox [E] on my shoulder with my favorite tape.
[G] I'm rapping my eight tracks and my buckle up [F] skates.
How do I know about that?
[G] You say, _ you say.
[C] You wear pale bottom jeans, get a self-proclaimed.
[G] From all the guys and the girls who look your way.
[F] Back then people didn't always agree.
[G] But the love going round was revolutionary. _
[A] _ Even though the world [Am] was [D] crazy.
I still go with my dreams [F] to take [C] me on.
I should have been [F] born in 65.
[Am] _ 74 [G] I would have been [C] nine.
Trying to get [F] home after playing [Am] outside.
Racing street [G] lights.
Racing street [C] lights.
I should have been [F] born in 65.
I [Am] would have been a teenager [D] around 79. _
[C] Teasing my hair [F] so it looked this [Am] bright on Saturday night.
[G] Yeah, that would [Am] have been nice.
Growing up I [F] never really had a care. _ _
[Am] _ _ There was love all the [F] time and _ [Gm] they [F] _ [G] were. _
[A] _ _ And even [Am] though sometimes [Dm] my world may get a little crazy.
[F] I find myself being proud when [G] I say.
_ Yeah, _ [C] I could have been [F] born in 45.
[Am] But the truth is I got [G] here right on time.
[C] And I thank God [F] for every day in my life.
[Am] It suits me just right.
[G] It suits me just [C] right.
I love the year [F] _ 1991. _
[Am] That's the year [D] that I come from.
[C] The one I want to trade [F] for another time.
[A] I love this [G] life.
Yeah, I [C] love this life.
_ [F] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ [G] I _ love [C] this life.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[D] _ I [G] love _ _ [C] this life.
_ _ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ [F] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [Am] _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] I love _ _ [F] _ _ _ [Am] _
_ _ _ _ [G] _ _ _
[C] this life.
I love this life.
