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?
