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

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