A                               D                  Dsus2         A
I think I'm going back to the things I learnt so well in my youth 

                                 D        Dsus2                   A
I think I'm returning to those days when I was young enough to know the truth 

 
          F#m                  C#m
Now there are no games To only pass the time 

        F#m                          A

No more colouring books No Christmas bells to chime 

              D                 Dsus2       A       D                Dsus2           A
But thinking young and growing older is no sin And I can't play the game of life to win 

 
                           D                 Dsus2          A
I can recall a time When I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend 

                           D                     Dsus2   A
And now I think I've got A lot more than just my toys to lend 


             F#m                      C#m
Now there's more to do Than watch my sailboat glide 

          F#m                 A
And every day can be My magic carpet ride 

    D          Dsus2                 A
And I can play hide and seek with my fears 

    D            Dsus2                  A
And live my days instead of counting my years 
 

       F#m                     C#m 
Then everyone debates The true reality 

           F#m                      A
I'd rather see the world The way it used to be 

  D             Dsus2           A        D               Dsus2
A little bit of freedom's all we lack So catch me if you can 

          A
I'm going back
