[Intro]
G

[Verse]
      G
I reminisce on the
      B7
last Christmas
                G
I spent with my mom
and my dad
          Cm
I'm still trippin'

wishin' that I could
     G
go back
                 B7
To know what I'm missin'
It's a mystery, oh,
            Em
 how'd I forget
            D#
I'm not a magician,
 I try fixin' shit
        G
that I can't

Memories make me sick
  B7
I hope the past is
as hard as it gets
Em
Momma say she drinkin'
 G
 to forget
  C
I told my momma
"Save your son a sip"
G
Tryna slow my breath
 and get a grip
B7
I think life is
harder than in death
Em
They're in Heaven,
I'm the one that's left
        D#
 (They left)

[Chorus]
 G
I did things I that
 knew were wrong
   B7
But time just
 keeps movin' on
   Em
And no matter which way I run
  C
I can't go back to
 the way it was
 G
I broke bones and
I shed some blood
 B7
I talked to a few
 friеnds I love
Em
  No matter which
way I run
  C
I can't go back to
the way it was, no


[Bridge]
G    B7 Em
Ooh, ooh
  C
I can't go back to
thе way it was, no
G    B7 Em
Ooh, ooh
      C
And I can't go back
 to the way it was
G    B7 Em
Ooh, ooh

[Chorus]
  D#
I can't go back to the way
             G
it was, no (Can't
go back to the-)
         B7
I said I can't go back
                     Em
 to the way it was, nah,
oh (No, no)
  Cm
I can't go back to
 the way it was, no
