Capo 1

Asus2     A     Asus2     A

Asus2          A                 
Dancing in the backyard
D                    F#m
Kool-aid moustache and butterfly wings
D          F#m             
Hearing Andrea McArdle sing
          E                   D     E                        
From the hi-fi in the den
          D          F#m          E
I've been waiting my whole life
              Asus2     A     Asus2     A       
To find a way back to then.
 
Asus2      A            
I aimed for the sky
   D               F#m 
A nine-year-old can see so far
       D                 F#m              
I'll conquer the world and be a star
            E                          D     E
I'll do it all by the time I'm ten
        D          F#m          E 
I would know that confidence
                Asus2     A     Asus2          
If I knew a way back to then.

      D                         F#m
So I bailed on my hometown and became a college theatre dork
      D                    F#m
I was eastbound and down moving to New York
      E                             D
So I crammed my life in a U-Haul
    E       Asus2     A     Asus2     A
To find my part of it all.

Bsus2            B          
But the mundane sets in
    E                     G#m
We play by the rules and plough through the days
     E             G#m
The years take us miles away
          F#                       E
From the time we wondered when
      F#        Bsus2     B    
We'd find a way back to then.

     E                          G#m    
And when you least expect, opportunity walks through the door
     E          G#m             E              F#
You suddenly connect with the thing that you forgot
      E                F#
That you've been looking for

              C
And there you are
             Gsus2             G
Right in the middle of what you love
           C           G
With the craziest of company
         C        G
You're having a kick-ass time!
      C            G                    D
And being who you wanted to be in this world

             C                    Am                D 
You're that little girl with her wings unfurled
         G     C     G     
Flying again...
C            Em     C       D
Back in the backyard dancing
               G               C     G 
I found a way back to then.
