G5      C5                D5       E5  
I returned to my home town yesterday       
        C5              G5                 D5
and my life before my eyes came flashing back
G5             C5                 D5               E5                      
Everything was changed and the faces look so strange  
C5                     G5             D5
sometimes I wish that I was young again


CHORUS
E5         C5            G5                     D5                        
And if I close my eyes think on back to happy times  
E5            C5       G5        D5
I could be 16 years old for awhile
E5                   C5                    G5         D5
Honest friendships, high school dances innocence short romances 
E5           C5          G5                 D5
Life was simple but it sure was good somehow 

G5      C5               D5         E5
Then we drove to an old beach last night 
          C5          G5           D5
a place we used to go not long ago
G5                 C5  
Walking barefoot in the sand
D5                E5            C5
I saw to people holding hands
               G5                 D5
Falling in love for their first time

CHORUS
G5        C5            D5           E5    
Now I'm older I guess a little wiser 
C5               G5           D5
experience is added to my name
G5                    C5            D5         E5
But I can't help but feel that I traded apart  
C5          G5         D5
Who I am along the way
