Verse

C
Looking at the radio caught up in a dream
          G
About the days gone by when no one had a TV
F
Hoping that the weather man 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 playing
G
You can still find me somewhere saying

~Chorus~

  C                        F
I should have been born in forty five
   Am           G
In fifty four I would have been nine
C                        F
White shirt poodle skirt silk hair tie
        Am               G                     C
Dancing in the moonlight that would have been nice
  F  Am G                       C      F   Am  G 
Ooh ooh oh that would have been nice ooh ooh

Verse

C
Boombox on my shoulder with 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 the people didn't always agree
        G
But the love going round was revolutionary and

Pre-Chorus

Am                              F
Even though the world was crazy I'd still go if my dreams could take me

Chorus

  C                        F
I should have been born in sixty five
   Am             G
In seventy four I would have been nine
C                        F
Trying to get home after playing outside
Am                   G
Racing street lights racing street lights
  C                        F
I should have been born in sixty five
  Am                               G
I would have been a teenager round seventy nine
C                     F
Teasing my hair so it looks just right
     Am             G                         C
On a Saturday night yeah that would have been nice

Bridge

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

Chorus

  C                       F
I could have been born in forty five
        Am                  G
But the truth is I got here right on time
    C                     F
And I thank God for every day of my life
   Am                     G
It suits me just right it suits me just right
    C               F
And lovely nineteen ninety one
Am                   G
That's the year that I come from
      C                              F
And I wouldn't want to trade it for another time
  Am             G                C
I love this life yeah I love this life
