G Dsus2 Emi9
1. He spends his nights in California, watching
Cadd9
the stars on the big screen
Then he lies awake and he wonders, why
can't that be me
Cause in his life he is filled with all these
good intentions
He's left a lot of things he'd rather not
mention right now
But just before he says goodnight, he looks
up with a little smile at me and says
G5 D5
R: If I could be like that, I would
give anything
E5 C5
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
what would I do
Now and dreams we run
2. She spends her days up in the north park,
watching the people as they pass
And all she wants is just a little piece of
this dream, is that too much to ask
With a safe home, and a warm bed, on a
quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to
hold onto, that's all she needs
Yeah!
R: If I could be like that...
I'm falling into this, in dreams
we run away
R: If I could be like that... (3x)
