GOIN' BACK by The Byrds
from the LP The Notorious Byrd Brothers
(Nils Lofgren does a nice version on his first solo LP)

I think I'm goin' back to the things I learned so well in my youth
A E
I think I'm returning to those days when I was young enough to know the truth

Now there are no games to only pass the time
C#m E
No more electric trains, no more trees to climb
A B E
But thinking young and growing older is no sin
A B E
And I can play the game of life to win
I can recall a time when I wasn't ashamed to reach out to a friend
Now I think I've got a lot more than just my toys to lend
Now there's more to do than watch my sailboat glide
But every day can be a magic carpet ride
A little bit of courage is all we lack
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back
A B E
La la la la la la la la la la la
A B E
La la la la la la la la la

So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back

Ahhhhhhhh... Ah ah ah ahhhhhhhh

Ahhhhhhhh... fade
