[Verse 1]
D5/A                            D   C                 
Livin' hard was easy.... when I was young and bulletproof
  G                                F      C     D5/A
I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof
  D5/A                       D C                     Cadd9
I Emptied every bottle, when I poured I never missed
  G                         F       C  D5/A
I had bloodshot eyes at 25, or was it 26 


[Bridge]
D5/A  F5/C                         D5/A             D/B Cadd9 D5/A

[Verse 2]
D5/A                     D     C                 Cadd9
Didn't seem to matter, what pa-rice I had to pay
       G                        F      C    D5/A
Cause anything worth havin' I'd just lose anyway
D5/A                       D    C                 Cadd9  
Friends worried about me they'd ask if I was sick
  G                              F       C  D5/A D5/A
Thought I wouldn't die at 25.... or was it 26


[Chorus]
      G                           D                Dsus4
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
A                             G    F      D5/A D5/A
Melted in the memory like somebody else's life
     G                                   D5/A      D      G
I'm glad to say I've come a-round but if I could have one wish
D5/A D                   G    
I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26

[Verse 3]
D5/A                          D   C                   Cadd9
Met a girl from Georgia smart and pretty college grad
  G                                    F         C        D5/A 
I Thought my luck was changin' up till then it'd all been bad
D5/A                              D  C                      Cadd9
Guess I fell in love with her all it took was just one kiss
    G                         F    C  D5/A
But she said goodbye at 25 or was it 26


[Chorus]
      G                           D                Dsus4

A                             G    F      D5/A D5/A
Melted in the memory like somebody else's life
     G                                   D5/A      D      G
I'm glad to say I've come a-round but if I could have one wish

I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26

[Verse 4]
D5/A                            D C                   Cadd9
I've been down that road before almost as far as hell
G                               F    C         D5/A
Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell 
D5/A   D           D5/A   D        C                  Cadd9  
I have faith in the knowledge that God gave us a gift
G                        F    C  D5/A D5/A
I couldn't hide at 25 or was it 26

I'm glad to say I've come a-round but if I could have one wish
