Capo 2nd fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

Verse 1

Wish I were down on some blue bayou,

With a bamboo cane stuck in the sand.

But the road I'm on, don't seem to go there,

So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.

Verse 2

Wish I enjoyed what makes my living,

Did what I do with willing hands.

Some would run, oh but that ain't like me,

So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.

Chorus

The way I am, don't fit my shackles,

The way I am, reality.

I can almost see that bobber dancing,

So I just dream and keep on being the way I am.

Instrumental

I just dream and keep on being the way I am.

Yodelaaaeeeeey, Yodel Oh del ayeeeeeee (to fade)
