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?
