This is one of my first tabs, so some stuff will probably be wrong. The
strumming patterns aren't shown, they're just the basic things, like the
chords. Please listen to either the CD or MP3 and see how to strum it. I
would have gladly shown the pattern, but I dunno how to express it in tab.
I think the format that I have given is a little confusing, so once again,
listen to the CD or MP3, it's almost necessary Comments are appreciated and
welcomed, so that everyone including myself can play 3DD better.
There are two guitar parts, guitar one is acoustic, guitar two is an
electric guitar.
Intro/Verse

Guitar two plays this 0:40 into the song along w/the verse riff. It's only
played once, and at the beginning of each chord change in the riff

Lyrics:
Verse 1:
He spends his nights in California, watching
the stars on the big screen
Then he lies awake and he wonders, why
can't that be me
Cause in his life he is filled with all these
good intentions
He's left a lot of things he'd rather not
mention right now
But just before he says goodnight, he looks
up with a little smile at me and says
Chorus:
If I could be like that, I would
give anything
Just to live one day, in those shoes
If I could be like that, what would I do,
what would I do
Now and dreams we run
Verse 2:
She spends her days up in the north park,
watching the people as they pass
And all she wants is just a little piece of
this dream, is that too much to ask
With a safe home, and a warm bed, on a
quiet little street
All she wants is just that something to
hold onto, that's all she needs
Yeah!
Chorus
I'm falling into this, in dreams
we run away
Chorus
Chorus
Chorus
(The choruses at the end are not all played w/the music to the chorus,
but the lyrics are that of the chorus, so just listen to the CD and
you'll see what I mean)
