Chords in this song

Strum
D-DU-UDU
 ~VERSE~
Looking  at the radio caught up in a dream
 About the days  gone by when no one had a TV
Hoping  that the weather man would say good things
 Like no rain  on Friday for the drive in movie
Little  kids didn't have a care
 There was love  growing up everywhere
 But when I open  my eyes and the dream stops playing
You  can still find me somewhere saying
 ~CHORUS~
 I should  have been born in forty  five
 In fifty  four I would  have been nine
White  shirt poodle skirt silk  hair tie
 Dancing in  the moonlight that  would have been nice
 Ooh  ooh oh  that would have been nice  ooh  ooh
 ~VERSE~
Boombox  on my shoulder with my favorite tape
 I'm reppin' my  8 tracks and my buckle up skates
How  do I know about that you say  you say
 You wear bell  bottom jeans get a double take
 From all the guys  and the girls who look your way
Back  then the people didn't always agree
 But the love  going round was revolutionary and
 ~PRE~CHORUS~
Even  though the world was crazy I'd  still go if my dreams could take me
 ~CHORUS~
 I should  have been born in sixty  five
 In seventy  four I would  have been nine
Trying  to get home after playing  outside
Racing  street lights racing  street lights
 I should  have been born in sixty  five
 I would  have been a teenager round seventy  nine
Teasing  my hair so it looks  just right
 On a Saturday  night yeah  that would have been nice
 ~BRIDGE~
Growing  up I never really  had a care
There  was love all the time and everywhere
And  even though sometimes my world  may get a little crazy
 I find myself being proud when I say
 ~CHORUS~
 I could  have been born in forty  five
 But the truth  is I got here right  on time
 And I  thank God for every day  of my life
 It suits  me just right it suits  me just right
 And lovely  nineteen ninety  one
That's  the year that I  come from
 And I wouldn't  want to trade it for another  time
 I love  this life yeah  I love this life
 ~OUTRO~
 It fades out repeating the outro.
Ooh  ooh  I love this life  ooh  ooh  I love this life
 I hope you enjoy my interpretation of the chords for this song.
 Peace, Love, I'm out.
