Standard (EADGBE)

PIANO INTRO:

Verse

 I think I'm going back

 To the things I learnt so well

 In my youth

 I think I'm returning to

 Those days when I was young enough

 To know the truth

Chorus

 Now there are no games to only pass the time

 No more colouring books, no Christmas bells to chime

 But thinking young and growing older is no sin

 And I can play the game of life to win

Verse

I can recall a time

When I wasn't ashamed to reach out

To a friend

And now I think I've got

A lot more than just my toys

To lend

Chorus

Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide

And everyday can be my magic carpet ride

And I can play hide and seek with my fears

And live my days instead of counting my years

Instrumental

Chorus

Let everyone debate the true reality

I'd rather see the world the way it used to be

A little bit of freedom's all we lack

So catch me if you can, I'm going back
