1945 Jamie Grace
1945- Jamie-Grace
[C]Looking at the radio caught up in a dream,
'Bout the days gon[D]e by when no one had a TV,
Ho[F]pin' that the weatherman would say good things,
Like no rain on [G]Friday for the drive-in movie,
[C]Little kids didn't have a care,
There was love growi[G]ng up everywhere,
But when I open my eye[F]s and the dream stops playin',
[G]You can still find me somewhere saying,
I sh[C]oulda been born in '45,[F]
In '54[Am] I woulda [G]been 9,
[C]White shirt, Poodle skirt, Silk hair tie,[F]
Dancing in t[Am]he moonlight, [G]
That woulda been nice,[C] [F] [Am] [G]
Yeah, that woulda been nice,[C] [F] [Am] [G]
Boombox on m[C]y shoulder wit' my favorite tape,
I'm reppin' my 8 trac[G]ks and my buckle-up skates,
[F]How do I know about that you say, You say,[G]
You wear bell-bott[C]om jeans get a double take,
[G]
[F]Back then people didn't always agree,
But the love go[G]in' round was revolutionary
And eve[Am]n though the world was crazy,
[G]I'd still go back if my dreams could take me oh,
[C]I shoulda been born in '65,[F]
In '[Am]74 I woulda[G] been 9,
[C]Tryna' get home after playin' outside[F],
[Am]Racin' street lights racin' st[G]reet lights,
[C]I shouda been born in '65,[F]
I woulda been a [Am]teenager in '79,[G]
[C]Teasing my hair so it looks just righ[F]t,
On a Saturday[Am] night yeah,[G]
That woulda been nice,[Am]
[Am]Growin' up I never really had [F]a care,
[Am]There was love all the time and everywhere,[G]
[Am]And even though sometimes my world may get a little [F]crazy,
[Am]I find myself bein' proud when I say, yeah[G]
[C]I coulda been born in '45,[F]
But the truth [Am]is I got here right on tim[G]e,
And I tha[C]nk God for every day of life,[F]
It su[Am]its me just right, It suits me [G]just right,
And lov[C]ely 1991,[F]
[Am]That's the year that I come[G] from,
And I would[C]n't wanna trade it for another time,[F]
I l[Am]ove this life yeah,[G]
I love this life[C],[F] [Am]
Ooohhh, I lov[G]e this life,[C] [F] [Am]
Ooohhh, I love [G]this life...
