I Wish I Was Eighteen Again

  D         G      D
At a bar down in Dallas
                  A
An old man chimed in
         D               A          D
And they thought he was out of his head
                   G
And all being young men
                      D
They just laughed it off
               G                  D
When they heard what this old man said

                     G
He said I'll never again
       D        A       D
Turn the young ladies' heads
                A          D           
Or go running off into the wind

  D         G        D
I'm three quarters home
                      A
       D          G         D
And I wish I was eighteen again
               A           D
Oh I wish I was eighteen again
                           A
And going where I've never been
   D         G          D
Now old folks and old oaks
                      A
Standing tall, just pretend
     D         A         D
I wish I was eighteen again

         G       D
Time turns the pages
                  A
And life goes so fast
        D            G            D
The years turn the dark hair all grey
             G        D
I talk to some young folks
                    A
But they don't understand
      D           A               D
The words this old man's got to say
                          A
Oh I wish I was eighteen again
    D            A          D
And going where I've never been


             G         D
Now old folks and old oaks
                     A
Standing tall, just pretend
    D           A         D
I wish I was eightee-een again
                A          D
Oh I wish I was eighteen again...
