[Intro]
   D

[Verse 1]
       D
well, sometimes I go walking
         D7                      G
through fields where we walked long ago
                       D
in the sweet used to be
D
and them flowers still grow, but they don't smell as sweet
                       A             D
as they did when you'd pick them for me

[Chorus]
          Bm                          D
yeah, and when I think of you and the love we once knew
G                      D
I wish we'd go back in time
D
do you ever think back on old memories like that
                A        D
and do I ever cross your mind

[Verse]
D
oh how often I've wished
     D7
that again I could kiss
            G
your sweet lips
                D
like I did long ago
         D
and how often I've longed,
for those two loving arms
                      A
that once held me so gentle
    D
and close

[Chorus]
Bm                          D
when I think of you and the love
we once knew
G                       D
I wish we'd go back in time
D
do you ever recall those
old memories at all
              A          D
and do I ever cross your mind?

I wish we'd go back in time
