Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
I  used to dream  that I would be
A  bright and shiny star on TV
Or  maybe I  would go to college
 Like Harvard or Devry
And  I would live  in an apartment
 In Paris  or in Cincinnati
 And I would play  my music loud
 And not apologize
I  used to dream  that I would marry
 A guy  that looked like Charlie Sheen
 And he would have  a name like:
Gary,  Steve, Todd,  David!
I  used to dream  I’d have three kids
 And they  would all look just like me
 And I would force  them kids to carry
 All my groceries.
We  don’t need no goals
 Don’t need  human connection
Dreams  are overrated
 Cause our life’s  already perfection.
Now  I know  all that is true
 Cause all  I really want is you
 And you and only  you.
Me?  You! Me?  You!
I  used to dream  that I would have
 A best  friend named Michelle
 And we would braid  some friendship bracelets
And  we would tell  all of those other  fucking cunts  to go to hell
 And when we’re sixty  we’d get face  lifts
 like Burt Reynolds
I  used to dream  I’d have co-workers
 And we’d  stay out till two at night
 And I would have  a perfect body
 You do! I know.
I  used to dream  that I’d have sex
 At some  point in my adult life
 And I was sure  that it’d be naughty
 Like that scene from Top Gun. Take my breath away!
We  don’t need no goals
 Don’t need  new man connection
Dreams  are overrated
 Cause our life’s  already perfection.
Now  I know  all that is true
 Cause all  I really want is you
 And you and only  you.
Me?  You! Me?  You!
You!
