   G      C                             D       Em
1. I returned to my home town  yesterday

               C         G                 D
and my life before my eyes came flashing back


G             C                 D               Em

Everything was changed and the faces look so strange


C                     G             D
sometimes I wish that I was young again


CHORUS

Em         C            G                     D
And if I close my eyes think on back to happy times

Em              C          G             D
I could be 16 years old for awhile

Em                   C                    G            D
Honest friendships, high school dances innocence short romances

Em           C          G                 D
Life was simple but it sure was good somehow



2. Then we drove to an old beach last night


a place we used to go not long ago


Walking barefoot in the sand


 I saw to people holding hands


Falling in love for their first time



CHORUS


3. Now I'm older I guess a little wiser


 experience is added to my name


But I can't help but feel that I traded apart  I am along the way



CHORUS twice
