  			verse 1 
         Am 
Have you ever wished for something like 
   F 
A second chance to make things right 
   C                                      G 
To stop the clock, return to where you've been 
     Am 
In a world that's spinning out of control 
   F 
We spend our days searching our souls 
    C                                  G 
For answers to the questions lost back then 

Pre-Chorus 
    F 
Now higher and higher I've built up this wall 
Fm 
Reaching to heaven, can you hear me call? 

Chorus 
C             G 
 Take me back, take me back 
F 
 Life is passing by so fast 
C             G         F 
 Take me back, take me back 
          F                Am 
I want to make each moment last 
                     G    F 
If I could start all over 
                        F 
Knowing what I know now that I'm older 
C             G               F 
 My future is past, so take me back 

verse 2 
        Am 
Through all the years of hurt and pain 
    F 
I'd re live each to love again 
   C                                 G 
To find the ones who might have got away 

Pre-Chorus 
    F 
Now higher and higher I've built up this wall 
Fm 
Reaching to heaven, can you hear me call? 

Chorus 
C             G 
 Take me back, take me back 
F 
 Life is passing by so fast 
C             G         F 
 Take me back, take me back 
          F                Am 
I want to make each moment last 
                     G    F 
If I could start all over 
                        F 
Knowing what I know now that I'm older 
C             G               F 
 My future is past, so take me back 

Bridge 
Fadd9     Am7           G7          Fadd9 
Oh... I'm counting the stars in the sky 
             Am7           G7    Fadd9 
Just to make sure that I'm still alive 
        Am7            G7        Dsus2 
Cause I don't want to run out of time 
   F 
Before I've even tried 

C             G         F 
 Take me back, take me back 
                      C 
Life is passing by so fast

Take me back, take me back

I want to make each moment last

I want to make each moment last

If I could start all over 
                        F
