verse 1 
   C        F                   C         C 
He wanted a tree fort more than anything 
       Am                    G               F      F 
Yes he wanted to build and defend one on his own 
        C                 F             C    Am 
But the neighbor boys' BB seige was overwhelming 
        G                           F                 C     C 
So he a-won't be building his dream tree fort anymore 

verse 2 
C               F                      C          C 
  He received a five-speed Schwinn for Christmas 
      Am                      G             F        F 
So he built a ramp out of the plywood and a stump 
       C         F             C    Am 
And at nights he dreamed Evel Knievel 
      G              F                C     C 
And a canyon to jump in a-his backyard 

F     G          Am                  G 
  Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras 
F     G          Am                                     G           F 
  Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his options 
                   F                    F 
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream 
                   F                 C        C 
And still he would rather dream than fuck 

verse 3 
C              F                      C              C 
Once he used a pocket knife to kill a garden snake 
       Am                G            F         F 
Yes he chopped that evil serpent into fours 
            C                  F           C       Am 
And when he raised his eyes to heaven as a soldier 
   G                  F                     C     C 
He wiped the blood of bad snake on his shirt 

F         G          Am                  G 
 Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he don't give a shit about the Contras 
F         G          Am                                     G           F 
 Yeah Danny um-Carlisle, he's barely grown and he's used up most of his options 
                   F                    F 
And still he would rather dream, dream, dream 
                   F                 C        C 
And still he would rather dream than fuck
