[Intro]

G   D   C   Em  D

 

 

[Verse 1]

            G

Sounds like everyone’s already talking about

      D

Where they’ll be at 5 years from now

       C                                 D

But it never dawned on me how close that is

 

 

[Verse 2]

      G

And I know I’m not yet that old in age

    D

And still have many years left to my name

          C                                   D

But those years seem to go faster the older I get

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

     C

Time marches on and it’s a matter of time

         D                                     Em   D          C

‘fore we all get gone but I never realized how soon that could be

      Em              D     C

And I know it happens naturally

 

 

[Chorus]

                   G

But if there was a fountain of youth you’d find me splashing around

            D

Cause these years are flying

D

I can’t hold them down

  Em

I swear if I could

Em

I’d do it all again

        C

Take me back to then

 

 

[Interlude]

G   D   C   Em  D

 

 

[Verse 3]

         G

Well I’m glad I can’t see what the future holds

   D

So it’s a surprise as I get old

      C                            D

And a mystery it is till the day I go

 

 

[Verse 4]

       G

Hopefully my best days are yet to be

      D

But I know those old days will be hard to beat

     C                                     D

Till then I’ll sit back and just enjoy the show

 

 

[Pre-Chorus]

    C

The clock doesn’t pause for anyone

            D

Just keep a living out your minutes till your days are done

Em              D         C

Doesn’t it hold up for anything

          Em       D      C

Time just moves on naturally

 

 

[Chorus]

                   G

But if there was a fountain of youth you’d find me splashing around

            D

Cause these years are flying

D

I can’t hold them down

  Em

I swear if I could

Em

I’d do it all again

        C

Take me back to then

               G

If there was a rewind button like a tv set

       D

I’d be pressing that thing every chance I’d get

        Em

Just to make sure

                        C

I didn’t miss something when

                   G

It took me back to then

 

 

[Interlude]

G   D   C   Em  D  G

D   C   Em  D

 

 

[Out-Chorus]

                   G

But if there was a fountain of youth you’d find me splashing around

            D

Cause these years are flying

D

I can’t hold them down

  Em

I swear if I could

Em

I’d do it all again

        C             G

Take me back to then
