Was It 26 Chords by The Charlie Daniels Band

[D] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Livin' hard was easy [G] when I was young and bulletproof
I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and [D] a rooter
_ _ Emptied every bottle [G] and a pour I never missed
I had bloodshot [D] eyes at 25, [G] or was it 26?
[D] _ _ _ Didn't seem to matter [G] what price I had to pay
Cause anything worth havin' I'd just lose [D] anyway
_ _ Friends worried about me, [G] they'd ask if I was sick
Thought [G] I would die [D] at 25, [G] or was it [D] 26? _ _
Those two years run together like [D] _ _ ice
[A] Meltin' into fevers like somebody [D] else's life
[E] _ [G] I'm glad to say I've come around, but [D] if I could have [C] one wish
I'd like [D] to do the try [G] at 25, [C] or was it [D] 26? _ _ _ _ _
_ I met a girl from Georgia, smart [C] and pretty, college [G] grad
I thought my luck was changin' up till then, it all [D] been bad
Guess I fell in love with her, [C] all it took was just one [G] kiss
But then she said goodbye [D] at 25, [C] or was it [D] 26?
_ _ [G] Those two years run together [D] like whiskey over ice
_ [A] Meltin' into fevers like somebody [D] else's life _ _

Yeah, I've been down that road before, [G] almost as far [Em] as hell _
