[INTRO]
[E] [A] [E] [A] [B7]
[VERSE 1]
Wish I were d[E]own on some blue [D]bay[A]ou,
With a bamboo [E]cane stuck in the [B7]sand.
But the road I'm [E]on, don't seem to [D]go [A]there,
So I just [E]dream and keep on [B7]being the way I a[E]m.
[CHORUS]
The way I [A]am, don't fit my [E]shackles,
The way I [B7]am, realit[E]y.
I can almost see that bobber [D]danc[A]ing,
So I just [E]dream and keep on [B7]being the way I a[E]m.
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[E] [A] [E] [A] [E] [E7]
[VERSE 2]
Wish I en[E]joyed what makes my [D]liv[A]ing,
Did what I [E]do with willing [B7]hands.
Some would [E]run, oh but that ain't [D]like [A]me,
So I just [E]dream and keep on [B7]being the way I a[E]m. [E7]
[CHORUS]
The way I [A]am, don't fit my [E]shackles,
The way I [B7]am, realit[E]y.
I can almost see that bobber [D]danc[A]ing,
So I just [E]dream and keep on [B7]being the way I [E]am.
I just [E]dream and keep on [B7]being the way[E] I am. [A]
