Fifty Years Ago

[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

We were living for the moment
And the sunlight on my silver bits
The ringing of my jinglebobs
Was the music of my soul
In the alley back of Mona's
I held Juanita in the shadows
How we held on to each other
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]

[A D A E A]

If I would have quit them broncos
She might have quit that business
But that was back in the fast days
You know before the wire
I bet I could still find her
Bet she's still as pretty
As when she was Juanita down at Mona's
And my only heart's desire

[Repeat Chorus x2]
