Again

([G]-[C]-[G]-[C])

She said,  [G]  "California," as a tear fell down her cheek
 [C]  "Small town Missouri just ain't the life for me."
 [G]  Waved goodbye to mom and dad, and all her friends
In that  [C]  '97 Mustang, that we both lost it in  [G]   [C]

 [G]  I can't recall the day I'd finally had enough
 [C]  Chasing my father's dream instead of growing up
 [G]  Turned in that uniform before I ever played a game
With a  [C]  junior college scholarship in a white trash town upstate

 [D]  You never know which way the road is gonna go when  [C]  it bends
 [D]  And all I know is what I'd give today to feel that way  [C]  again, yeah  [G]   [C]

 [G]  I made the most of no degree here selling cars
On the  [C]  westside of St. Louis where most the rich folks are
 [G]  From time to time I hear about some star you met
 [C]  And just how close you've come but haven't made it yet

 [D]  It gets me thinking 'bout the way it was and all we could  [C]  have been
 [D]  Wondering if you ever wish that you could feel that way  [C]  again, oh, and feel that
 [G]  again  [C]   [G]   [C]

 [D]  You never know which way the road is gonna go when  [C]  it bends
 [D]  And all I know is what I'd give today to feel that way  [C]  again

 [G]  I cannot lie sometimes when I come back to town
I  [C]  head out to the river and roll the windows down
 [G]  Listen to that Mississippi running through the night
Let it  [C]  wash away the years and bring you back here by my side  [G]

Let it  [C]  wash away the years  [G]  and bring you back here by  [C]  my side, yeah  [G]   [C]
Feel that way  [G]  again  [C]   [G]   [C]  fade out
