I Wish I Were 18 Again

G                G7        C
At a bar down in Dallas an old man chimed in
D7                                 G
And they thought he was out of his head
              G7             C
And all being young men they just laughed it off
D7                                G    D7
When they heard what this old man said

   G               G7             C
He said I'll never again turn the young ladies' heads
   D7                      G
Or go running off into the wind
                   G7            C
I'm three quarters home from the start to the end
    D7                    G     D7
And I wish I was eighteen again

     G          G7        C
Oh I wish I was eighteen again
    D7                     G
And going where I've never been
                  G7                C
Now old folks and old oaks standing tall just pretend
  D7                  G     D7
I wish I was eighteen again

     G         G7        C
Time turns the pages and life goes so fast
D7                               G
The years turn the dark hair all gray
               G7              C
I talk to some young folks but they don't understand
    D7                          G   D7
The words this old man's got to say

Repeat #3

     A7         D7       G
Oh I wish I was eighteen again
