[Verse 1]
E B
I wish I was younger
F# G#m E B
The fat kid with the big, blue eyes full of wonder
F# G#m E B F# G#m
No shame, no fame, no worries, the king of wiffle ball (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F#
Without a care at all
E B
I wish I was younger
F# G#m E B
Keeping track of the lightning strikes and the thunder
F# G#m E B F# G#m
Barely thirteen, no hurry, my feet over the wall (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F#
It doesn't matter if I fall
[Chorus]
E G#m F# C#m E G#m F#
I wish I was younger
E G#m F# C#m E G#m F#
I wish I was younger
[Verse 2]
E B
I wish I was younger
F# G#m E B
Barbies and fashion shows with my brother
F# G#m E B F# G#m
So clear, no fear, no bullies, I didn't even know (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F#
Where did all that magic go?
E B
I remember third grade, shades, new rollerblades
F# G#m
4 foot 2, feeling 10 foot 8
E B F#
Classic Mario
E B
I remember charades, your braids, my first date
F# G#m
Working at the pool, barely ever getting paid
E B F#
Do you remember those days?
E B
I wish I was younger
F# G#m E B
Getting high with my friends outside in the summer
F# G#m E B F# G#m
Never cool, never had a lot of money, but damn we had it all (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F# G#m
We had it all
[Chorus]
E G#m F# C#m E G#m F#
I wish I was younger
E G#m F# C#m E G#m F#
I wish I was younger
E G#m F# C#m E G#m F#
I wish I was younger
[Verse 3]
E B
I wish I was younger
F# G#m E B
Butterflies in my chest when I asked for your number
F# G#m
You smiled and said, "You're funny"
E B F# G#m
Two words and I was gone (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F# G#m
You wrote it on my arm (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
E B F# G#m
I swear, we set off the alarm (oh, oh, oh-oh-oh)
[Outro]
E B F# G#m
Do you remember making out in the stands?
E B F# G#m
Showing up late and getting kicked out of bands?
B F# E B
Poor Mr. Kafer never could understand
E F#
Just take me back to who I was when I was younger
E B F# G#m
Do you remember riding home in the rain?
E B F# G#m
That Sunday morning, playing songs about Jane?
B F# E B
And from that moment I was never the same
E F#
Just take me back to who I was when I was younger
E F#
Just take me back to who I was when I was younger
E F# B
Just take me back to who I was when I was younger
