20 Years Ago
Album: The Boxmasters
INTRO: Bm D G A
Bm D
Starin' off into space
G
Smokin' more than I should
A
Stayin' out of the race
Bm
Hidin' from the neighborhood
Lookin' out thru the cracks
Catchin' glimpses of life
I touch the past when I look back
Like it's the edge of a knife
Playin' to a crowd of one
As I cuss my demons out
For the things that I have done
To put my future in doubt
Feelin' poison eat me up
From the fun I thought I had
'Fore I knew that lady luck
Could turn stark ravin' mad
CHORUS:
G A D
And I'd give anything for twenty years ago
G A D
And what I know today about sayin' no
G A D D/C# Bm
I'd give anything for twenty years ago
G A D
I'd never live the dreams that made this nightmare grow
INTRO
Hardly leavin' this place
Once a month for the news
That I shouldn't have much faith
And my bill is overdue
The phone rings every now and then
But I never pick it up
I don't wanna talk to old friends
Who are up on their luck
CHORUS
SOLO (chorus chords)
CHORUS
G A D
I'd never the live the dreams that made this nightmare grow
