         Bm                                         G 
 I'd be chilling, listening to Dylan, holding up a peace sign

                Bm 
 Johnny Cash be rocking that black 
                             G 
 Singing to the stripes and kicking out all the lights

 If I was an old car, I wanna be a Mustang 
  Bm                                       G 
 American made with a white rag top on a blue sky kind of day 
                  D                  A 
 And if I was a preacher, I wanna be Dr. King 
       Bm                                       G

 Laugh and love, don't miss your chance 
        C                                   A
