C#m Bm C#m Bm
[Verse 1]
C#m I've these dreams I'm walking home Bm Home when it used to be C#m And ev-ery-thing is as it was Bm Frozen in front of me C#m Here I stand, six feet small Bm Ro-man-ticizing years ago C#m But it's a bit-ter-sweet feeling Bm Hearing "Wrapped Around Your Finger" on the radio
[Pre-Chorus]
Dsus2 C#m And these days Dsus2 C#m I wish I was six again Dsus2 C#m Oh, make me a red cape Dsus2 C#m I wanna be Su-perman
[Chorus 1]
C#m Oh, if only my life Am7 D Am7 D Was more like nine-teen eighty-three Am7 All these things would be more D Am7 Like they were at the start of me D C#m Bm Had it made in eighty-three
[Verse 2]
C#m Think-ing 'bout my brother Ben Bm I miss him every day C#m He looks just like his brother John Bm But on an eighteen-month delay C#m Here I stand, six feet small Bm And smiling 'cause I'm scared as hell
C#m (hold)
Kind of like my life is like a sequel to a movie
Bm (hold)
Where the actors' names have changed, Oh, well

Am7 D You can paint that house a rainbow of colors Am7 D Am7 Rip out the floorboards, replace the shutters, but D Am7 D That's my plastic in the dirt

Am7 D Whatever happened to my, Whatever happened to my Am7 D Whatever happened to my lunchbox? Am7 D When came the day Am7 D That it got thrown a-way Am7 And don't you think I should have had D Am7 D Some say in that deci-sion? Am7 D If only my life
