Verse 1: [Keep Figure 1 Finger Pattern The Rest Of The Song]

      A                         D2(no3)/A

Gone away, the days of wish and wondering

     A                        D2(no3)/A

Far away, like a vision in my mind

     F#m      G#dim7    D             A

The child has grown and left me here alone

Bm7                             D/E

Looking back to what was left behind

 

Verse 2: [Played Like Verse 1]

Lullabyes and pennies in a wishing well

Sad goodbyes to friends of make believe

A love so pure, a treasure

C2         Bm7           A  Bm7(slide)C#m7

Now buried in the sea of me



Chorus 1:

D              C#m        Bm7              A

Milton lost his paradise, Dorothy lost her way

Bm7              F#m     Bm7                 [Riff 2]

Vincent lost his sanity, Thomas lost his faith

D               C#m          Bm7              F#m7

Hoover lost the second time, Sigmund lost his friend

Bm7           F#m7            Bm7     Bm7/E  [Figure 1]

Me, I lost my innocence and I want it back again



Verse 3: [Played Like Verse 2] 

A tug-of-war is going on inside of me

A calloused heart that wants to make a change

While time prevails fighting tooth and nail

Keeping me set in my ways



Chorus 2: [Played Like Chorus 1]

Marco found the orient, Gepetto found his boy

Lincoln found a unity that Lee could not destroy

Lindy found the other side, Gershwin found the stage

Me, I found a stuborness that seems to grow with age



Bridge: [Instead O3f Figure 1 After Chorus]

     A                   D                               A

As I dream of where I'll go, may I learn from where I've gone

                             D           Esus E

And take the memories that I hold into tomorrow



Repeat Chorus 1



Outro: [Instead Of Figure 1 After Chorus]

  G2(no3)       Bm7        Bm7/E          [Figure 1]

I had it once before and I want it back again
