A5                               D5                  D5         A5
I think I'm going back to the things I learnt so well in my youth 
                                 D5        D5                   A5
I think I'm returning to those days when I was young enough to know the truth 
 

          F#5                  C#5
Now there are no games To only pass the time 
        F#5                          A5
No more colouring books No Christmas bells to chime 
              D5                 D5       A5       D5                D5           A5
But thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can't play the game of life to win 
 

                           D5                 D5          A5
I can recall a time When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend 
                           D5                     D5   A5
And now I think I've got A lot more than just my toys to lend 
 

             F#5                      C#5
Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide 
          F#5                 A5
And every day can be My magic carpet ride 
    D5          D5                 A5
And I can play hide and seek with my fears 
    D5            D5                  A5
And live my days instead of counting my years 
 

       F#5                     C#5 
Then everyone debates The true reality 
           F#5                      A5
I'd rather see the world The way it used to be 
  D5             D5           A5        D5               D5
A little bit of freedom's all we lack So catch me if you can 
          A5
I'm going back
