verse 1
Am
Have you ever wished for something like
F
A second chance to make things right
C G
To stop the clock, return to where you've been
Am
In a world that's spinning out of control
F
We spend our days searching our souls
C G
For answers to the questions lost back then
Pre-Chorus
F
Now higher and higher I've built up this wall
Fm
Reaching to heaven, can you hear me call?
Chorus
C G
Take me back, take me back
F
Life is passing by so fast
C G F
Take me back, take me back
F Am
I want to make each moment last
G F
If I could start all over
F
Knowing what I know now that I'm older
C G F
My future is past, so take me back
verse 2
Am
Through all the years of hurt and pain
F
I'd re live each to love again
C G
To find the ones who might have got away
Pre-Chorus
F
Now higher and higher I've built up this wall
Fm
Reaching to heaven, can you hear me call?
Chorus
C G
Take me back, take me back
F
Life is passing by so fast
C G F
Take me back, take me back
F Am
I want to make each moment last
G F
If I could start all over
F
Knowing what I know now that I'm older
C G F
My future is past, so take me back
