[Eb]
[Bb]
I stare out the window [F] at this long [Bb] interstate
Backed up in traffic,
[F] I just sit here [Bb] and wait
And dream of wide [Eb] open spaces, no fences [Bb] or gates
But this [F] is the 90's, [Eb] I guess [F] I was just born [Bb] too late
Well a smog from the city, [C]
it sure burns [Bb] my eyes
And sometimes I wonder just [F]
how we'll [Bb] survive
We keep [Eb] running faster, but are we losing [Bb] race?
Well I guess I'm [F] old fashioned,
[Eb]
[F] just born [Bb] too late
Just born [Eb] too late, for these modern [Bb] days
I should [Eb] have lived [C]
before [F]
microwaves
I'm like an [Eb] endangered species, just captured [Bb] by fate
[C] [Eb]
But I have [Bb] no choice, [F]
I was just born [Bb] too late
[Eb]
[Bb]
This built in computer, [F] tells me how far [Bb] I've been
Another advancement,
[F] of this age we [Bb] live in
But it can't [Eb] change the scenery, or help me [Bb] escape

I should [Eb] have lived, [C]
