[Verse 1]
A
If I could roll back the years
D
Back when I was young and limber
A
Loose as ashes in the wind
Bm E
I had no irons in the fire
C#m
I could ride them wild young broncos
D
The adrenaline came quickly
A
And Juanita down at Mona's
E A
Was my only hearts desire

[Verse 2]
A
We were living for the moment
D
And the sunlight on my silver bits
A
The ringing of my jinglebobs
Bm E
Was the music of my soul
C#m
In the alley back of Mona's
D
I held Juanita in the shadows
A
How we held on to each other
E A
And the lovin' that we stole

[Chorus]
A Bm E
And the sighing of the pines
A
Up here near the timberline
D
Makes me wish I'd done things different
A
Oh, but wishing don't make it so
Bm E
Oh the time has passed so quick
A
The years all run together now
D
Did I hold Juanita yesterday
E
Was it fifty years ago

[Instrumental]
