Intro: A9 ? Em9 (2x)
I?ve[A9] these dreams I?m walking home
[Em9]Home when it used to be
And ev-[A9]ery-thing is as it was
[Em9]Frozen in front of me
Her[A9]e I stand, six feet small
Ro-[Em9]man-ticizing years ago
But it?s a bit-[A9]ter-sweet feeling
Hearing ?Wrapped Around Your Finger? on the[Em9] radio
And [D7]these [A9]days
I [D7]wish I was [A9]six again
Oh, make me a re[D7]d [A9]cape
I [D7]wanna be [A9]Su-perman
Oh, if only my life
[Am7/4] Was more like [D9]nine-teen eighty-thre[Am7/4]e[D9]
All these thing[Am7/4]s would be more
Like they [D9]were at the start of m[Am7/4]e
Had it mad[C]e in eigh[D]ty-thre[A9]e
[Em9]
Think-[A9]ing ?bout my brother Ben
I mis[Em9]s him every day
He look[A9]s just like his brother John
But on an [Em9]eighteen-month delay
Her[A9]e I stand, six feet small
And [Em9]smiling ?cause I?m scared as hell
A9 (tacet)
Kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie
Em9 (tacet)
Where the actors? names have changed
Oh, well
Well, [D7]these [A9]days
I [D7]wish I was [A9]six again
Oh, make me a re[D7]d [A9]cape
I [D7]wanna be [A9]Su-perman
Oh, if only my life
[Am7/4] Was more like [D9]nine-teen eighty-thre[Am7/4]e[D9]
All these thing[Am7/4]s would be more
Like they [D9]were at the start of m[Am7/4]e[D9]
If my lif[Am7/4]e was more like [D9]nineteen eighty-thr[Am7/4]ee[D9]
I?d plot a cours[Am7]e to the source
Of the [D9]purest little part of m[Am7]e[D9]
[C#m] And most my memorie[F#7]s have escape[C#m]d me
Or confused themselves with [F#7]dreams
[B] If [Bm]hea-ven?s all we wan[E7sus4]t it to be[E7]
Send your prayers to me
Care of nineteen eighty-thre[C7]e
D9 ? Asus2- Am7
D9 ? Am7 ? D9
You can [Am7]paint that house a[D9] rainbow of colors
Ri[Am7]p out the floorboards, [D9]replace the shutters, but[Am7]
That?s my [D9]plastic in the dir[Am7]t[D9]
[Am7] Whatever happened to [D9]my
Whatever happened to my
[Am7] Whatever happened to [D9]my lunchbox?
[Am7] When came the [D9]day
That it got[Am7] thrown a-[D9]way
And don?t you thin[Am7]k I should have had
Some [D9]say in that deci-[Am7]sion?[D9]
If only my li[Am7]fe[D9]
If only my li[Am7]fe[D9]
If only my life?
