Alec Benjamin - 1994

      [Verse]
                 Em            G
This is where I broke my wrist
           D              Am7
Where I thought I could fly
                Em      G
Thinking I was Superman
         D              Am7
So you know you can't cry
                      Em            G
Cause I wanted to be just like them
             D              Am7
And save my city from crime
                C               D                        Em
I wanted to be just like them, just like them, just like, them


                    Em            G
Campbell's chicken noodle soup
           D              Am7
When you stay home from school
                 Em            G
Remember watching MTV
                       D              Am7
When there was still music for you
                Em            G
Just a kid on Cholla Street
              D              Am7
From my city built in the sand
                       C               D                 Em
My father said "you'll be a man, be a man, be a man"

[Chorus]

Em C     G       D
I....was born in 1994
Em C     G       D
I....was born in 1994
C G    D     Em
I was, I was born
C   D   Em

[Verse]
                       Em            G
I guess Santa Claus is just not real
     D              Am7
And Batman can't fly
                 Em            G
And nobody’s invincible
           D              Am7
Because I know people die
                 Em            G
I saw it on the news one day
           D              Am7
When the towers fell down
                     C               D                        Em
September's not the same place now, same place now, same place, now

                     Em            G
Now tell me who you wanna be
             D              Am7
Because you grow up too fast
                 Em            G
Cut my hair and sag my jeans
           D              Am7
And never show up to class
                     Em            G
Get ready cause it's time to leave
    D              Am7
So pack up your bags
                   C               D              Em
And go be who you wanna be, wanna be, wanna be

[Chorus]
Em C     G       D
I....was born in 1994
Em C     G       D
I....was born in 1994
C G    D     Em
I was, I was born
C   D   Em
In 1994

[Bridge]
Em          G           D              Am7
My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty
Em          G           D              Am7
My country tis of thee, be who you wanna be
Em          G           D              Am7
My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty
        C              D         Em
My country, my country, my country, my...

[Chorus]
Em C     G       D
