                 Fm7          G#
This is where I broke my wrist
          D#              A#m7
Where I thought I could fly
                Fm7     G#
Thinking I was Superman
         D#             A#m7
So you know you can't cry
                      Fm7          G#
Cause I wanted to be just like them
             D#            A#m7
And save my city from crime
                C#
I wanted to be just like them,
 D#                      Fm7
just like them, just like, them

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

Chorus:
Fm7 C#    G#      D#
I    was born in 1994
Fm7 C#    G#      D#
I    was born in 1994
C# G# D#     Fm7
I was, I was born
C# D# Fm7
In 1994

I guess Santa Claus is just
not real and Batman can't fly
And nobody's invincible because
I know people die
I saw it on the news one day
when the towers fell down
September's not the same place now,
same place now, same place now

Now tell me what you wanna be
because you grow up too fast
I'll cut my hair and sag my jeans
and never show up to class
Get ready 'cause it's time to leave,
so pack up your bags
And go be who you wanna be,
wanna be, wanna be

Chorus

Fm7         G#           D#            A#m7
My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty
Fm7         G#           D#         A#m7
My country tis of thee, be who you wanna be
Fm7         G#           D#           A#m7
My country tis of thee, sweet land of liberty
        C#              D#          Fm7
My country, my country, my country, my...
