[Verse]
Bm
Down on the courts in Bed Stuy, a legend rose from the streets
A Bm
Just a poor kid with no use for what the others called gravity
Bm
People came from all around to see young Connie Hawkins do his thing
A
When the hawk went up against the best at Rucker Park, oh how the choir would sing
E
High flying kid, do you know what you just did?
G Em Bm
And it's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, what do you know
D A
Hey pa, I think I'm gonna make it, I'm going away on a one way ticket
G Em Bm
And it's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, steady you go
D A
Round here those are always sinking, folks will say, Connie, what were you thinking
Em
Bm
He lead the team in High School, he never lost once two years in a row
A Bm
Got a scholarship to Iowa and knew that he had to go
Bm
He sent a letter home, to his papa, said, papa, I'm going to the NBA
A Bm
But then out of nowhere his name got dropped into a scandal, always someone got to pay
E
High flying kid, do you know what you just did?
G Em Bm
It's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, what do you know
D A
Hey pa, I think I'm gonna make it, I'm going away on a one way ticket
G Em Bm
And it's just a dream love, it's just a dream love, steady you go
D A
Round here those are always sinking, folks will say, Connie, what were you thinking

G Bm Em A
So I got to, got to, got to get going now, pap, there's a detective here from the EA
C G D
And he's telling me they'll lock me away, if I don't say what he wants me to say
C G Am Em
So to all the kids on the back home lots, I swear it isn't like they say
Am C D
The investigators pushed me around, and then I was blackballed by the NBA
G Dm C G Em
That playground legend, who could dunk when he was eleven, with super natural abilities
G Em D
Long before MJ, before the Doctor
G D C G Em
And his Dreams were stolen, stomped on and thrown in, he never got his day in the sun
G Em D G
And now here lies High Flying Hawkins, the greatest player that never was
D
