Going Back
View chords used in this chart
I think I'm returnin' to
A E
Those days when I was young enough to know the truth
C#m Abm
Cho... Now there are no games to only pass the time
C#m E
No more electric trains, no more trees to climb
A B E
But thinking young & growin' older is no sin
A B E
And I can play the game of life again
I can recall the time
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a freind
Now I think I've got
A lot more than just my toys to lend
Cho... Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide
And everyday can be a magic carpet ride
A little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can I'm going back
verse... La la la la la
Cho... Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide
And everyday can be a magic carpet ride
A little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can I'm going back
verse... La la la la la
