Goin Back Tab

by Byrds



Here's a good song from a fine LP.  Bass players: you must listen to this
album.  Peace.



                    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
                                                                       
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
                              
No more electric trains, no more trees to climb
                                         
But thinking young and growing older is no sin
                                 
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

                      
La la la la la la la la la la la
                      
La la la la la la la la la
                                  
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
                      n..
So catch me if you can, I'm goin' back

                      
La la la la la la la la la la la
                      
La la la la la la la la la

                    
Ahhhhhhhh...  Ah ah ah ahhhhhhhh
                    
Ahhhhhhhh...
