Bb7 Eb Bb


[Verse 1]

                      F                    Bb
I stare out the window at this long interstate
                     F                     Bb
Backed up in traffic, I just sit here and wait
                             Eb               Bb
And dream of wide-open spaces, no fences or gates
                    F  Eb               F             Bb
But this is the 90's,     guess I was just born too late


[Verse 2]
                      F                    Bb
The smog from the city, it sure burns my eyes
                  F  F7                Bb
Sometimes I wonder   just how we'll survive
                     Eb                       Bb
We keep runnin' faster but are we losing the race
                              F  Eb   F              Bb
Well I guess I'm old fashioned,       just born too late


[Chorus]
               Eb
Just born too late
                 Bb
For these modern days
                Eb   C7
I should have lived
             F
Before microwaves
                          Eb
I'm like an endangered species
                  Bb    C*  D*  Eb
Just captured by fate
                  Bb    F
But I have no choice
                    Bb
I was just born too late

[Verse 3]
                      F                      Bb
This built in computer tells me how far I've been
                    F                  Bb
Another advancement   of this age we live in
                       Eb                  Bb
But it can't change a scenery or help me escape
                 F     Eb              F            Bb
The constant reminder      that I was just born too late


[Chorus]
                     Eb
I was just born too late
                  Bb
For these modern days
                Eb  C7
I should have lived
             F
Before microwaves
                         Eb
I'm like an endangered species
                  Bb   C*  D*  Eb
Just captured by fate
                Bb    F
But I have no choice
                     Bb   C*  D*  Eb
I was just born too late

                 Bb  F                     Bb
No I have no choice,   I was just born too late
