[Verse 1]
[C]He wanted a tree [F]fort more than [C]anything
Yes, he [Am]wanted to build and
[Em]defend [G]one on his [F]own
[Am]But the [C]neighbor b[F]oys BB siege
[C]was overwhelm[Em]ing[Am]
[F]So [Em]he won't be[G] building his dr[F]eam
tree fort anymore
[C]

[Verse 2]
He received a [F]five- speed
[C]Schwinn for Christmas
So [Am]he built a ramp out of
the ply[G]wood and [F]a stump
And [Em]at n[C]ights he d[Am]reamed
[F]Evi[C]l Kni[Am]evel
And [G]a canyon to jump [F]in his
[C]backyard.
[Em]

[Verse 3]
[Am][F]
[G]Danny Carl[Am]isle,
he don't give [G]a shit about [F]the contras
[G]Danny Carlisle, [Am]he's barely grown and he's
used up [G]most of his op[F]tions
And still he would rather dream, dream,
dream still he would rather [C]dream than fuck

[Verse 4]
[C]
Once he used a [F]pocket knife
to kill [C]a garden snake
Yes he [Am]chopped that evil
ser[G]pent into [F]four
And when [C]he raised his eyes to
[F]heaven as [C]a soldier[Am]
He [G]wiped the blood of [F]bad snake
on [C]his shirt
[G][Em]

[Verse 5]
[F]
Yeah, [G]Danny Carl[Am]isle he don't give
[G]a shit about [F]the contras
[G]Yeah Danny [Am]Carlisle he's barely grown
and he's used up [G]most of his [F]options
And still he would rather dream
dream dream than fuck
Still he would rather dream [C]than fuck
