C
Looking at the radio caught up in a dream,
                  D
'Bout the days gone by when no one had a TV,
  F
Hopin' that the weatherman would say good things,
                G
Like no rain on Friday for the drive-in movie,
C
Little kids didn't have a care,
                    G
There was love growing up everywhere,
                      F
But when I open my eyes and the dream stops playin',
G
You can still find me somewhere saying,


    C                                F
I shoulda been born in '45,
      Am        G
In '54 I woulda been 9,
C                                        F
White shirt, Poodle skirt, Silk hair tie,
            Am                         G
Dancing in the moonlight, 
                                 C     F   Am   G
That woulda been nice,
                                         C     F   Am   G
Yeah, that woulda been nice,


            C
Boombox on my shoulder wit' my favorite tape,
                     G
I'm reppin' my 8 tracks and my buckle-up skates,
F                                                 G
How do I know about that you say, You say,
                  C
You wear bell-bottom jeans get a double take,
                       G
From all the guys and the girls who look your way,


F
Back then people didn't always agree,
               G
But the love goin' round was revolutionary
       Am
And even though the world was crazy,
G
I'd still go back if my dreams could take me oh,


C                                    F
I shoulda been born in '65,
    Am         G
In '74 I woulda been 9,
C                                    F
Tryna' get home after playin' outside,
Am                            G
Racin' street lights racin' street lights,
C                                  F
I shouda been born in '65,
                Am                         G
I woulda been a teenager in '79,
C                                    F 
Teasing my hair so it looks just right,
             Am                G
On a Saturday night yeah,
                                Am
That woulda been nice,


Am                            F
Growin' up I never really had a care,
Am                                                  G
There was love all the time and everywhere,
Am                                                  F
And even though sometimes my world may get a little crazy,
Am                                                G
I find myself bein' proud when I say, yeah


C                                  F
I coulda been born in '45,
              Am                        G
But the truth is I got here right on time,


         C                                  F
And I thank God for every day of life,
     Am                             G
It suits me just right, It suits me just right,
       C             F
