Gadd9Gsus7Cadd9/GGadd9
I think I'm goin' back to the things I learnt so well in my youth,
Gadd9Gsus7Cadd9/GGadd9
I think I'm returning to those days when I was young enough to know the truth!
Verse 2
EmEm7BmBm7
Now there are no games ...to only pass the time,
EmEm7Gadd9
No more colouring books, no Christmas bells to chime,
C/DG
But thinking young and growing older is no sin,
C/GGadd9
And I can play the game of life to win!
Verse 3
Gadd9Gsus7Cadd9/GGadd9
I can recall the time when I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend,
Gadd9Gsus7Cadd9/GGadd9
And now I think I've got a lot more than a skipping rope to lend!
Verse 4
EmEm7BmBm7
Now there's more to do ...than watch my sailboat glide,
EmEm7Gadd9
And every day can be ...my magic carpet ride,
C/DG
And I can play hide-and-seek with my fears,
C/GG
And live my days, instead of counting my years!

Verse 6

Let every - one debate ...the true re - ality,
EmEm7Gadd9
I'd rather see my world ...the way it used to be,
C/DG
A little bit of freedom's all we lack,
CGadd9
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back----------!
