VERSE: (Palm muted)
G
Hey, man, it's been a while do you remember me?
Bm A
When I hit the streets I was 17
G Bm A
A little wild, a little green I've been up and down and in between
G Bm A
After all these years and miles of memories I'm still chasing dreams
G
But I ain't looking over my shoulder
CHORUS
D G
I like the bed I'm sleeping in just like me, it's broken in
A D
It's not old -- just older
G
Like a favorite pair of torn blue jeans This skin I'm in it's alright with me
A D
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:
C
I'm not old enough to sing the blues
G D
But I wore the holes in the soles of these shoes
C
You can roll the dice 'til they call your bluff
Em A
But you can't win until you're not afraid to lose
SOLO
D
Well, I look in the mirror I don't hate what I see
G
There's a few more lines staring back at me
A D
Now the night has grown a little bit colder
D
Hey man, I gotta run Now you take care
G
If you see coach T. tell him I’ve cut my hair
A
I’ve kept my fear still believe I’m just- Ha!
