[Verse 1]
E                             D
I think I'm goin' back to the days
                                    E
When I was young enough to know the truth
                              D
I think I'm gonna turn to the things
                        E
I learned so well in my youth

[Verse 2]
E         C#m                  G#m
Now there are no games to only pass the time
            C#m                  E                A
No more electric trains, no more dreams to climb
                           B              E    A
Thinking young and growing older ain't no sin
                 B             E
I can play the game of life to win

[Verse 3]

I can recall the time
       D                                      E
When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to my best friends
                      D
Now I think I've got
                                       E
A lot more than just these toys to lend

[Verse 4]
E           C#m                   G#m
Now there's more to do than watch myself walk by
           C#m                E            A
When every day can be a magic carpet ride
                  B             E     A
Little bit of courage is all we lack
                       B           E
So catch me if you can,  I'm goin' back
A                 B             E     A
Little bit of courage is all we lack
                    B         E
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
