GUEST,Mike Luedee Lyr Req: Take Me Back (John Prince) (5) RE: Lyr Req: Take Me Back (John Prince) 10 Jun 17


Not sure how accurate but sounds good to me..these are my own and feel free to correct. This would be Capo 2 as the original is in A chord. Beautiful song.

Take Me Back

Intro:

[G]Take me back to the [C]good kind of [G]livin'
Where [C]life was shared [D]in the joy of [G]givin'
Where [Am]life was easy and passed by slowly;
[Em]Dreams came true and the Sabbath holy
[C]Time was meant to [D]simply drift a-[G]way.

Oh, some-[C]times I think I'd [D]like to be a [C]sail-[D]or
[C]Drifting a-[D]long on the [G]seven seas.
And [C]just to be a [D]kind of magic [C]tail-[D]or
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me

(Short instrumental)

[G]Let me run through [C]fields of [G]clover
Be-[C]fore they're [D]gone and covered [G]over
And [Am]let me find the place I long for,
[Em]And the love I'd sing a song for
[C]Give me time to [D]lay back down and [G]dream.

Oh, some-[C]times I think I'd [D]like to be a [C]sail-[D]or
[C]Drifting a-[D]long on the [G]seven seas.
And [C]just to be a [D]kind of magic [C]tail-[D]or
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me

(Full Instrumental)

[G]Let me run through [C]fields of [G]clover
Be-[C]fore they're [D]gone and covered [G]over
And [Am]let me find the place I long for,
[Em]And the love I'd sing a song for
[C]Give me time to [D]lay back down and [G]dream.

Oh, some-[C]times I think I'd [D]like to be a [C]sail-[D]or
[C]Drifting a-[D]long on the [G]seven seas.
And [C]just to be a [D]kind of magic [C]tail-[D]or
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me

Oh, some-[C]times I think I'd [D]like to be a [C]sail-[D]or
[C]Drifting a-[D]long on the [G]seven seas.
And [C]just to be a [D]kind of magic [C]tail-[D]or
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me
And [C]weave the dreams that be-[D]long to you and [G]me
