80s Baby Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[A][G][A]
[G][A][G][A]

[Verse 1]
[G]First
things [A]first... 80s baby
I had to make a track [G]'bout
80s ladies
Spandex... [A]silk shirts
Big [F#m]perm s... short skirts
[G]First girl, heart[A]beat be stoppin'
Full House [G]Lori Loughlin
Then [A]Elisabeth Shue
Karate Kid 1, not Karate Kid II
[C]Y'all already know who used
to drive me [G]crazy
[Bm]Hair go big like top- down Mer[G]cedes
[A]Yo, I missed one, hold up, wait
[Bm]Ain't nobody finer than Phoebe [A]Cates
[C]Kathy, Cindy, Brinkley, [G]too
[Bm]Eyes stay stuck [A]like superglue
I loved [Em]MC L[G]yte and Lisa Bonet,
Michelle Pfeiffer too [A]many to name

[Verse 2]
Ain't it funny how the times flies by
in the [Bm]blink [G]of an eye
If we could just rewind for
just a little while
[A]Remember how things used to be,
picture [Bm]you and [G]me
Though it may be hazy,

[Verse 3]
ooh yeah I'm an 80s baby
[G]Kids today... they don't [A]understand
The 80s were gnarly, [Bm]like, totally, [G]man
Better bikes, better babes,
better [A]cars too
Better tunes, better rooms,
better cartoons
[G]PG- [A]13 movies...
...still showed lots of [G]boobies
Man, what's better than that?
Nothing! [A]Actual fact.
In the 80s, MJ [F#m]still looked black
[C]Used to stay up real late
[G]Elv[Bm]ira lookin' real great
I was a [A]Cali kid, Niners! Raiders!
[Bm]Pick the wrong one and
you're [A]labeled a traitor
[C]Playing outside planning major capers
[Bm]Reading color comics in
the Sunday papers
[Em]Still not [G]thinkin' that the
80s were the best?
Three letters: NES
Ain't it [A]funny

[Verse 4]
how the times flies
[Bm]by in the blink of[G] an eye
If we could just rewind for
just a little while
[A]Remember how things used to be,
[Bm]picture you [G]and me
Though it may be hazy,

[Verse 5]
ooh yeah I'm an 80s baby
[G]Yo, I've been [A]thinking a little bit
I got a little ahead of my[Bm]self,
just a [G]little bit
The eighties [A]were crazy in every
way that I remembered it
Until I remembered that, like,
[F#m]nobody had [A]the internet
[G]No [A]wi- fi, no high- speed
No Brie Larson [Bm]no Blake Li[G]vely
So you wanted to catch
[A]ALF on a Tuesday...
Tough luck, 'cause [F#m]ALF was on Mondays
[C]You had to wait six days for ALF[G] to play
[Bm]But today, hell, go cop the blu-[G] ray
[A]Our old tech were straight up frightening
[Bm]Need reminding of tape[A] rewinding?
It's [C]better now, what more do you need?
[G]We [Bm]got PS4s! And legal weed!
We got [Em]gay mar[G]riage! And
IMAX screens!
And a female President in
2016! Y[A]O!

[Verse 6]
Ain't it funny how the times flies [A]by
in the [Bm]blink [G]of an eye
If we could just rewind for
just a little while
[A]Remember how things used to be,
picture [Bm]you an[G]d me

[Outro 1]
Though it may be hazy, ooh yeah I'm an 80s baby
