1st verse-
G D
He spends his nights in California,
Em C
Watching the stars on the big screen
G D
Then he lies awake and he wonders,
Em C
Why can't that be me?
G
Cause in his life he's filled
D
With all these good intentions
Em
He's left a lot of things
C G
He'd rather not mention right now
D
But just before he says goodnight,
Em C
He looks up with a little smile at me,
And he says...
chorus-
G D
If I could be like that,
I would give anything
Em C
Just to live one day, in those shoes
G D
If I could be like that,
Em
What would I do,
C
What would I do?
2nd verse-
G D
She spends her days up in the north park,
Em C
Watching the people as they pass
G
And all she wants is just
D
A little piece of this dream,
Em C
Is that too much to ask?
G D
With a safe home, and a warm bed,
Em C
On a quiet little street
G D
All she wants is just that something to
Em C
Hold onto, that's all she needs
Yeah!
(Repeat chorus x3)
