Sandi Thom - I Wish I Was A Punk Rocker

0Chorus - actually no chords, sing a capella -:
     E0            F#m1                A2            E3
1Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
          E4       A5                B6
2In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
      E7        F#m8        C#m9                 A10
3I was born too late to a world that doesn’t care
     E11            F#m12                A13            E14
4Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair

6Verse:
E15
7When the head of state didn’t play guitar,
    F#m16
8Not everybody drove a car,
     B17                         F#m18        E19
9When music really mattered and radio was king,
E20
10When accountants didn’t have control
        F#m21
11And the media couldn’t buy your soul
       B22                              F#m23                E24
12And computers were still scary and we didn’t know everything
13
14Chorus:
     E25            F#m26                A27            E28
15Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
          E29       A30                B31
16In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
      E32        F#m33        C#m34                 A35
17I was born too late to a world that doesn’t care
     E36            F#m37                A38            E39
18Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
19
20Verse - same as first -:
21When popstars still remained a myth
22And ignorance could still be bliss
23And when God saved the Queen she turned a whiter shade of pale
24When my mom and dad were in their teen
25and anarchy was still a dream
26and the only way to stay in touch was a letter in the mail
27
28Chorus:
     E40            F#m41                A42            E43
29Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
          E44       A45                B46
30In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
      E47        F#m48        C#m49                 A50
31I was born too late to a world that doesn’t care
     E51            F#m52                A53            E54
32Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
33
34Verse - same as first -:
35When record shops were on top
36and vinyl was all that they stocked
37and the super-info highway was still drifting out in space
38kids were wearing hand me downs,
39and playing games meant kick arounds
40and footballers still had long hair and dirt across their face
41
42Chorus:
     E55            F#m56                A57            E58
43Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
          E59       A60                B61
44In 77 and 69 revolution was in the air
      E62        F#m63        C#m64                 A65
45I was born too late to a world that doesn’t care
     E66            F#m67                A68            E69
46Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
47
48Outro:
      E70        F#m71        C#m72                 A73
49I was born too late to a world that doesn’t care
     E74            F#m75                A76            E77
50Oh I wish I was a punk rocker with flowers in my hair
