Was it 26


D                                  G
Livin' hard was easy, when I was young and bulletproof
           C                     G             D
I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof
                             G
Empited every bottle, when I poured I never missed

         C                      G      D
I had bloodshot eyes at 25, or was it 26?

                                G
It didn't seem to matter, what price I had to pay
          C                                G     D
'Cause anything worth having I'd just lose it anyway
                         G
Friends worried about me they asked if I was sick
        C                     G      D
Thought I would die at 25 or was it 26?

      G                          D
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
C                             G             D
Melting in my memories like somebody else's life
     G                                  D             C
I'm glad to say I've come around but if I could have one wish
    G                         C      D
I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26?

D                               G
I met a girl from Georiga smart pretty college grad
  C                                          G            D
I thought my luck was changing up till then it'd all been bad
                              G
Guess I fell in love with her all it took was one kiss
     C                        G      D
But she said goodbye at 25 or was it 26?

REPEAT CHORUS:

D                               G
Yeah, I"ve been down the road before almost as far as hell
C                               G              D
Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell
                         G
I have in the knowledge that God gave us a gift
C                        G      D
I couldn't hide at 25 or was it 26?

       G                           D
Those two years run together like whiskey over ice
C                           G                D
Melting in my memories like somebody else's life
    G                                  D                 C
I'm glad to say I've come around but if I could have one wish
     G                       C      D
I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26?
      G                       C      D
I'd like another try at 25 or was it 26?
