Chords

[Intro] E A E A B7 [Verse 1]
             E                D  A
Wish I were down on some blue bayou,

              E                 B7
With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand.

                 E                 D  A
But the road I'm on, don't seem to go there,

          E                 B7               E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
[Chorus]
          A                E
The way I am, don't fit my shackles,

          B7        E
The way I am, reality.

                             D   A
I can almost see that bobber dancing,

          E                 B7               E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
[Instrumental] E A E A E E7 [Verse 2]
         E                   D  A
Wish I enjoyed what makes my living,

           E               B7
Did what I do with willing hands.

           E                      D    A
Some would run, oh but that ain't like me,

          E                 B7               E    E7
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.
[Chorus]
          A                E
The way I am, don't fit my shackles,

          B7        E
The way I am, reality.

                             D   A
I can almost see that bobber dancing,

          E                 B7              E
So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.

       E                 B7           E        A
I just dream and keep on being the way   I am.
