Am I'm hoping for Em A song that will come to me while I'm asleep 'Cause I can't lie G C So I can't write~~ C A Eyes in the dark And it has occurred to me Em G That I have spent my whole life C Starting over, oh oh A Cry, pining for The things that I could have been Em I could have been a gold digger G I could have been a gunslinger A I could have been a little bigger C I could of been an old ringer Em I could've been a pop singer C G I could've been a pop singer C D# I could've been a pop singer But what I am is a silence (verse 2) Riff plays over rest of the song.
