G C D Em
1. I returned to my home town yesterday
C G D
and my life before my eyes came flashing back
G C D Em
Everything was changed and the faces look so strange
C G D
sometimes I wish that I was young again
CHORUS
Em C G D
And if I close my eyes think on back to happy times
Em C G D
I could be 16 years old for awhile
Em C G D
Honest friendships, high school dances innocence short romances
Em C G D
Life was simple but it sure was good somehow
2. Then we drove to an old beach last night
a place we used to go not long ago
Walking barefoot in the sand
I saw to people holding hands
Falling in love for their first time
CHORUS
3. Now I`m older I guess a little wiser
experience is added to my name
But I can`t help but feel that I traded apart I am along the way
CHORUS twice
