Chorus:
 E                 Gbm                 A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
           E       A                B
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
        E         Gbm             Dbm            A
I was born too late to a world that doesnt care

Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

Verse:
 E
When the head of state didnt play guitar
       Gbm
Not everybody drove a car
       B                         Gbm       E
When music really mattered and radio was king
 E
When accountants didnt have control
         Gbm
And the media couldnt buy your soul
          B                              Gbm             E
And computers were still scary and we didnt know everything

Chorus:
 E                 Gbm                 A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
           E       A                B
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
        E         Gbm              Dbm           A
I was born too late to a world that doesnt care
       E            Gbm                A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

Verse:
  E
When popstars still remained a myth
      Gbm
And ignorance could still be bliss
           B                                Gbm             E
And when God saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
 E
When my mom and dad were in their teens
       Gbm
And anarchy was still a dream
          B                               Gbm           E
And the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail

Chorus:
 E                 Gbm                 A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
           E       A                B
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
        E         Gbm              Dbm           A
I was born too late to a world that doesnt care
       E            Gbm                A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

Verse:
 E
When record shops were on top
      Gbm
And vinyl was all that they stocked
         B                             Gbm             E
And the super info highway was still drifting out in space
  E
Kids were wearing hand me downs
       Gbm
And playing games meant kick arounds
        B                                 Gbm               E
And footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face

Chorus:
 E                 Gbm                 A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
           E       A                B
In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
        E         Gbm            Dbm             A
I was born too late to a world that doesnt care
       E            Gbm                A          E
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
       E         Gbm             Dbm          A
I was born too late to a world that doesnt care
      E             Gbm              E           A
Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
