V1:
[F#]Here I sit at 25
[C#]Now watch my child-hood go by
[B]Wish I could go back again
[C#]Start the thing over and start again
[F#]And I could never fault you
[C#]For saying it couldn?t be true
[B]What would you want me to believe in
[B]Want me to believe in

Intro music, played once through

V2:
[F#]Now I sit and wonder why
[C#]The best part of my life went by
[B]The things were so important then

[C#]For saying it couldn?t be true
[B]What would you want me to believe in
[B]Want me to believe in

V3:
[F#]Now that I am old enough
[C#]To see the things I missed in life
