I Go Back Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C][F]
[C][F][C][F]

[Verse 1]
[C]"Jack and Diane" painted a picture of
my [F]life and my dreams
[C]Suddenly this crazy world
[F]made more sense to me
[C]Well I heard it today
and I couldn't [F]help but sing along
[Dm]Because every time I hear that song[G]

[Chorus 1]
I go [C]back to a two toned short bed Chevy
[F]Driving my first love out to the levee
[C]Living life with no sense of [F]time
And I go [C]back to the feel of a fifty yard line
A [F]blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
[C]Wishing time would stop right in its [F]tracks
[Dm]Every time I hear that song,[G]
I go [C]back[F]
I go [C]back[F]

[Verse 2]
[C]I used to rock all night long
to [F]"Keep On Rocking Me Baby"
[C]Frat parties, college bars,
just [F]trying to impress the ladies
[C]Well I heard it tod[G]ay
and I couldn't [F]help but sing along
[Dm]Because every time I hear that song[G]

[Chorus 2]
And I go [C]back to the smell of an old gym floor
And the [F]taste of salt on a Carolina shore
After [C]graduation
and drinking goodbye to [F]friends
And I go [C]back to watchin summer fade to fall
Growin [F]up too fast and I do recall
[C]Wishin time would stop right in its [F]tracks
[Dm]Everytime I hear that song[G],
I go [C]back[F]
I go [C]back[F]

[Bridge 1]
[Am]We all have a song
that [F]somehow stamped our lives
[Dm]Takes us to another plac[G]e and time
[G]

[Chorus 3]
So I go [C]back to a pew, preacher, and a choir
[F]Singing bout God, brimstone, and fire
And the [C]smell of Sunday chicken
after [F]church
And I go [C]back
to the loss of a real good friend
And the [F]sixteen summers I shared with him
Now [C]"Only The Good Die Young"
[F]stops me in my tracks
[Dm]Every time I hear that song[G]
I go [C]back[F]
I go [C]back[F]

[Outro 1]
[C]To the feel of a fifty yard line
A [F]blanket, a girl, some raspberry [C]wine
I go [F]back (I go back)
To [C]watching summer fade to fall
Growing [F]up too fast and I do recall
[C]I go bac[F]k (I go back)
[C]To the loss of a real good friend
And the [F]sixteen summers I shared with him
[C]I go bac[F]k,
I go [C]back, [F]I go bac[C]k[F]
[Fade out]
