[Verse 1]
[D][G][D][G]
[D]You[G] know,
we get caught up [Bm]do ing everything
we're not [C]promised tomorrow.
Sometimes you need to close your eyes
[Em]an d[D] just go back.
Yeah, [G]back when life was simple as [Bm]that
I didn't know I'd miss it so [C]bad
When this whole world had
[Em]way less w[D]orries
Nobody in a hurry
Yeah, [G]back to mama's home cookin'
And [Bm]dad was beggin' by hookin'
I'm [C]sittin' on a tailgate
Thinkin' about those days
[Em]Just wish I [D]was back
[G]When I think about how it used to be,
Lord, it was so simple then
[Bm]Dirt bike and a fishin' pole
and a fishin' hole with all my friends
[C]Nothin' better than a BB gun
in my backyard just huntin' squirrels
[Em]Took a ring from [D]my momma's
drawer
and gave it to this little girl
[G]Her momma called mine
and then my daddy had to have a talk
[Bm]I remember like yesterday
what he said when we [G]took that walk
[C]Son, don't you ever tell no lie,
even if the truth burns
[Em]Every day my [D]mind goes back
to all those lessons learned
[G]Back when life was simple as [Bm]that
I didn't know I'd miss it so [C]bad
When this whole world had
[Em]way less w[D]orries
Nobody in a hurry
Yeah, [G]back to mama's home cookin'
And [Bm]dad was beggin' my hook
And I'm [C]sittin' on a tailgate
Thinkin' about those days
[Em]Just [D]wish I was [G]back
I remember that Texaco
that Mr. Logan used to own
[Bm]They turned it into something else
and Mr. Logan's long gone
[C]My best friend David,
he grew up riding in a wheelchair
[Em]Thought I'd give a [D]million bucks
if that old boy was still here
[G]Ain't it funny how time goes by
and memories seem to fade away
[Bm]They built a parking lot
on the baseball field we used to play
[C]That skating rink closed down,
but now I see it's back again
[Em]I remember those all[D]
-night skates,
very first dates and my old friend
[G]Back, when life was simple as [Bm]that
I didn't know I'd miss it so [C]bad
When this whole world had
[Em]way less w[D]orries
Nobody in a hurry
Back[G], to mama's home cookin'
And [Bm]dad was beggin' my hook
And I'm [C]sittin' on the tailgate
Thinkin' bout those days,
[Em]just wish I [D]was[G][C][Bm][C]
[Em][D]
[G]My dad's getting older now,
but son,
he's still as tough as ever
[Bm]Him and my little boy are best friends now,
wish it could last forever
[C]My mama's still the one I
talk to when I need advice
[Em]She never ever let me down,
God, [D]what will I do when
she's not around?
[G]Back when life was simple as [Bm]that
I didn't know I'd miss it so
[C]Back when this whole world
had [Em]way less w[D]orries
Nobody in a hurry
Yeah, [G]back to mama's home cookin'
And [Bm]dad was beggin' my hook
And I'm [C]sittin' on the tailgate
Thinkin' about those days,
[Em]just [D]wish I was
[G]Back when life was simple as [Bm]that
I didn't know I'd miss it so [C]bad
When this whole world
had [Em]way less w[D]orries
Nobody in a hurry
Yeah, [G]back to mama's home
Cookin' and [Bm]dad was beggin' my heart
