[Verse 1]
         D     G
Starting young
        D                            G                     D
Whoa, I wish I would a got a whiskey bottle and cracked it open
          G              D                 G
The day I met you ribbon blowin' thru your hair
            D    G
If Ida just run

        D                                G                   D
Whoa, I probably would a started smoking cigarette under the bridge after school
G                     D            G
Like a rebel kid on a double dare


[Pre-chorus]
    Bm       A             G       D
But I didn't cause I loved you and your ways
    Bm         A          G
The damage was done after that first taste


[Chorus]
   A                 D                G
If Ida been a little older, I could a handled you better (handled you better)
    A                D              G
The spell you put on me never went away
A                   D                  G
You in my blue jean jacket all wrapped up in forever (up in forever)
D                       G
Still in my bones right now
            D                 G
Just like a habit I can't put down
D             A              D         G    D  G
Sure is tough when you start young-ung-ung
         D      G
Starting young


[Verse 2]
        D                        G                         D
Whoa, I wish I would a called it quits  that night when we fought
          G            D                    G
After the game, yea, I could a just walked away
           D   G
But I held on
     D                        G
Till what we had together was more than a fling
        D                           G
Could a stopped myself from getting in too deep


[Pre-chorus]
    Bm       A             G       D
But I didn't cause I loved you and your ways
    Bm         A          G
The damage was done after that first taste


[Chorus]
   A                 D                G
If Ida been a little older, I could a handled you better (handled you better)
    A                D              G
The spell you put on me never went away
A                   D                  G
You in my blue jean jacket all wrapped up in forever (up in forever)
D                       G
Still in my bones right now
            D                 G
Just like a habit I can't put down
D             A              D         G

    Bm                A           G         D
Sometimes I wonder if it’s you or is just 1-6
     Bm                  A            E             G
When thought of you runs thru my mind either way, I think


[Chorus]
   A                 D                G
If Ida been a little older, I could a handled you better (handled you better)

D                       G
Still in my bones right now
            D                 G
Just like a habit I can't put down
D             A              D         G    D  G
Sure is tough when you start young-ung-ung
               D         G    D  G
When you start young-ung-ung
        D                  G
Oh when you start young it goes by fast
          D             G      D  G
You can’t look back-ack-ack, no
