Chris Stapleton version of Was it 26 Tune to D tuning For intro and opening finger an open Dsus2 on the 4th fret Slide up to 7th fret then down to second fret This also played as a musical bridge between chorus and verse Great fun with this song Em D Livin' hard was easy, when I was young and bulletproof A G Em I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof D Emptied every bottle, when I poured I never missed A G Em I had bloodshot eyes at 25, or was it 26? Em D It didn't seem to matter, what price I had to pay A. G Em 'Cause anything worth having I'd just lose it anyway D Friends worried about me they asked if I was sick A G Em Thought I would die at 25 or was it 26?
A Em Those two years run together like whiskey over ice B A G Em Melting in my memories like somebody else's life A Em A I'm glad to say I've come around but if I could have one wish Em A G Em I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26? Em D I met a girl from Georiga smart pretty college grad A G Em I thought my luck was changing up till then it'd all been bad D Guess I fell in love with her all it took was one kiss A G Em But then she said goodbye at 25 or was it 26? REPEAT CHORUS: A Em Those two years run together like whiskey over ice B A G Em Melting in my memories like somebody else's life A Em A I'm glad to say I've come around but if I could have one wish Em A G Em I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26? Em D Yeah, I"ve been down the road before almost as far as hell A G Em Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell D I have in the knowledge that God gave us a gift So G Em I couldn't hide at 25 or was it 26? A Em Those two years run together like whiskey over ice B A G Em Melting in my memories like somebody else's life A Em A I'm glad to say I've come around but if I could have one wish Em A G Em I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26? Em A G Em I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26?
