[Verse 1]
Am                         C
When I was a boy, I had a dream
F                                G
All about the things I'd like to be
A                  
Soon as I was in my bed
F
Music played inside my head
C                            G
When I was a boy, I had a dream
[Verse 2]
Am                   C
When I was a boy, I learned to play
F                       G
Far into the night and drift away
Am                          
Don't want to work on the milk or the bread
F                          
Just want to play my guitar instead
Am                          G    
When I was a boy, I had a dream
[Chorus]
Am          C            F          G
And radio waves kept me company
          Am         C              F      G
In those beautiful days when there was no money
Am                         C
When I was a boy, I had a dream
[Verse 3]
Am                         C
When I was a boy, I had a dream
F                                   G
Finding out what life could really mean
Am
Don't want a job cause it drives me crazy
F
Just wanna sing, "Do you love me, baby?"
Am                   G
When I was a boy, I had a dream
[Chorus]
Am          C            F          G
And radio waves kept me company
          Am         C              F      G
In those beautiful days when there was no money
Am                         C
When I was a boy, I had a dream
Am
