[D]
Livin' hard was easy [G] when I was young and bulletproof
I had no change to bind me, just a guitar [D] and a roof
Emptied every bottle and [G] a pour I never missed
I had bloodshot [D] eyes at 25, [C] or [D] was it 26?
Didn't seem to matter what price [G] I had to pay
Cause anything worth havin' I'd just [D] lose anyway
Friends worried about me, [G] they'd ask if I was sick
Thought I would [D] die at 25, [G] or [D] was it 26?
[G] Those two years run [Em] together [D] like ice
[A] Meltin' into memories [C] like [F] somebody [D] else's pie
I'm [Am] [Dm] [G] glad to say I've come [D] around to [C] have one wish
[D] I'd like another [G] try at 25, [C] or was it [D] 26?
I met a girl from Georgia, smart [G] and pretty, a college grad
I thought my luck was changin' up till [F] then it all [D] been bad
Guess I fell in love with [G] her, all it took was just one kiss
But then she said goodbye [Dm] at [Em] 25, or was [D] it 26?
[G] Those two years run [Em] together [D] like whiskey over ice
[A] Meltin' into memories like [C] [F] somebody [D] else's pie
[G] I'm glad to say I've [Em] come [D] around to have [C] one wish
I'd [D] like another try [G] at 25, [C] or was [D] it 26?
Yeah, I've been down that road before, [C] almost as [Em] far as hell
[G]
Deception or redemption, I [C] guess only [F] time [D] will tell
