Biography:
Harry Chapin (December 7, 1942 – July 16, 1981) was an American singer and songwriter. Chapin's debut album, Heads and Tales (1972), was a success thanks to the single "Taxi". His follow-up album, Sniper and Other Love Songs, was less successful; but his third, Short Stories, was a major success. Verities & Balderdash, released soon after, was even more successful, bolstered by the chart-topping hit single "Cat's in the Cradle". He also wrote and performed a Broadway musical, The Night That Made America Famous.

C Dm
There you stand in your dungarees
C G
Lookin all grown up and so very pleased
C Dm
When you write your poems they have so much to say
C G
When I hear your dreams it takes my breath away
F C Em Am
You know I want to be a ballplayer a regular sluggin fool
Dm G F G C
But I guess our dreams must wait awhile until we finish school
Chorus
C Dm
And so you and I we watch our years go by
G Am
We watch our sweet dreams fly far away
Em G
But maybe someday
C Dm
I don't know when But we can dream again
G Am Em G
And we'll be happy then till our time just drifts away
There you stand in your wedding dress
You're so beautiful that I must confess
I'm so proud you have chosen me when a doctor is what you want to be
You know I want to be a painter girl a real artistic snob
But I guess we'll have our children first
You'll find a home I'll get a job
Chorus
Bridge
Am Em Am Em
Listen to the seasons passing listen to the winds blow
Am Em F D G
Listen to the children laughing where do broken dreams go
There you stand in your tailored suit
So many years go by but you're still so cute
You take the car to go and meet the bus
When the grandchildren come to visit us
You say you should have been a ballerina girl
There are songs I should have sung
But I guess our dreams have come and gone
You're supposed to dream when you are young
