VERSE: (Palm muted)
SOL
Hey, man, it's been a while do you remember me?
SIm LA
When I hit the streets I was 17
SOL SIm LA
A little wild, a little green I've been up and down and in between
SOL SIm LA
After all these years and miles of memories I'm still chasing dreams
SOL
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
CHORUS
RE SOL
I like the bed I'm sleeping in just like me, it's broken in
LA RE
It's not old -- just older
SOL
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans This skin I'm in it's alright with me
LA RE
It's not old -- just older
It's good to see your face you ain't no worse for wear
Breathing that California air when we took on the world
When we were young and brave we got secrets that we'll take to the grave
Standing here shoulder to shoulder
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
DO
I'm not old enough to sing the blues
SOL RE
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
DO
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
MIm LA
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose
SOLO
RE
Well, I look in the mirror I don't hate what I see
SOL
There's a few more lines staring back at me
LA RE
Now the night has grown a little bit colder
RE
Hey man, I gotta run Now you take care
SOL
If you see coach T. tell him I’ve cut my hair
LA
I’ve kept my fear still believe I’m just- Ha!
