E        A      E
If I Had My Way.   We would stay golden
   E       A       E
Frozen in frame.   Never get older
E    B         C#m       B    F#m
Days pass and time just slips away 

    E            A      E
The summers that came.  Lasted for ages
         E           A       E
Drinking Coke in the shame.  Sunburnt faces
E       B     C#m   B    F#m
I grew Up and  I..  went away
      E      B         C#m      B        A
But I always said that I'd come back someday
      B
To be laid down 

E    F#m   A        B
Take Me   back to forever
E         F#m      A       B
That's where I was born to be
E           F#m        A       B
How'd I end up in this land of never
     E   F#m        A       B
Only memories

   E          A        E
It used to go slow,But now it's so fast
    E             A      E
It melts like the snow,  Christmas midwest
E    B      C#m         B    F#m     
Time lapses years just drift away
      E      B         C#m      B        A
But I always said that I'd come back someday 
       B
to be laid down

E    F#m   A       B
Take Me    back to forever
E         F#m      A       B
That's where I was born to be
E          F#m         A       B
How'd I end up in this land of never
     E   F#m      A      B
Only memories

   C#m            A
In this spot.This exact spot
        E               B
Is where I'd hide until I got caught
    C#m                A
And this place,this is My place
    F#m         B
And homes all I got so

E    F#m   A       B
Take Me    back to forever
E         F#m       A       B
That's where I just long to be
E         F#m          A       B
How'd I end up in this land of never
     E   F#m      A     B
Only memories
      E   F#m      A     B
Oh My memories,
     E            F#m       A      B

      E   F#m      A     B
