[Verse 1]
A    C#m        F#m         E
If I were a few generations younger 
who would know
D        C#m               Bm   
What I'd like and what I'd do, 
           E
my taste in music, taste in clothes
A           C#m             F#m 
Perhaps I'd meet a girl who 
               E
likes the things I do and maybe more
D            C#m               
We'd take my thunderbird for a 
Bm               E
summer trip down to the shore


[Pre-Chorus]
F#m  A      F#m      A       D
Home-coming can only come so soon
     E          D                
It's time to go back in time and 
E
come run away with you


[Chorus]
    A              F#m   D   
And I hope you are still alive, 
                   E
though it ain't 1955
A          F#m                 D
I would be right there by your 
              E
side, if I was born in '39
A     F#m              D        
Maybe we could build a boat and 
     E
sail across the sea
A              F#m               
But you're far away from me, not 
D                  E
just by length but by an eternity

[Verse 2]
A     C#m              
I can see your face, your 
   F#m                  E
hair-sprayed hair ad polka-dotted 
dress
D     C#m             
I got suspenders, got my 
   Bm                   E
thick-rimmed glasses and my hair's a
 mess
A             C#m               
But you don't care, we just sip 
F#m                E
our milkshakes and theorize about 
the moon
D         C#m         Bm  
Listen to Perry Como, I'd get 
            E
jealous as you swoon


[Pre-Chorus]
F#m  A      F#m      A       D
Home-coming can only come so soon
     E          D                
It's time to go back in time and 
E
come run away with you


[Chorus]
A                  F#m   D      
And I hope you are still alive, 
                E
though it ain't 1955
A          F#m                 D
I would be right there by your 
              E
side, if I was born in '39
A     F#m              D        
Maybe we could build a boat and 
     E
sail across the sea
A              F#m               
But you're far away from me, not 
D                  E
just by length but by an eternity

[Bridge]
A     A/G#           F#m         
Maybe we can build a boat and sail 
  E
across the sea
D  D/C#                Bm       
No electric light will blind us 
         E
from the starry sky
A           A/G#           F#m  
I take your hand, you'd be mine,
           E
 and in my car at the drive-in
D   D/C#            Bm           
The radio is all we need to feel 
E
alive
A       A/G#                F#m 
Build a rocket ship and fly into
              E
 the moon and never come back
D            D/C#               
I'll see you on the edge of the 
Bm           E
galaxy as we run on for miles


[Chorus]
A                  F#m   D      
And I hope you are still alive, 
                E
though it ain't 1955
A          F#m                 D
I would be right there by your 
              E
side, if I was born in '39
A     F#m              D        
Maybe we could build a boat and 
     E
sail across the sea
A              F#m               
But you're far away from me, not 
D                  E
just by length but by an eternity
