1945- Jamie-Grace

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

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


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


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

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


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


C majorC                 FF
I coulda been born in '45,
       A minorAm            G+G
But the truth is I got here right on time,


     C majorC                 FF
And I thank God for every day of life,
   A minorAm               G+G
It suits me just right, It suits me just right,
    C majorC       FF
And lovely 1991,
A minorAm             G+G
That's the year that I come from,
      C majorC                     FF
And I wouldn't wanna trade it for another time,
  A minorAm         G+G

Ooohhh, I love this life...
