[VERSE]
B5    A5      E         B5
Every night I dream the same dream
B5         A5        E             B5
Of getting older and older all the time
B5        A5   E         B5
I ask you now, what does this mean?
B5        A5       E          B5
Are these problems just in my mind?
B5         A5   E           B5
Things are easy when you're a child
B5            A5             E             B5
But now these pressures have dropped on my head
B5              A5   E        B5
The length I've gone are just long miles
B5         A5         E         B5
Would they be shorter if I were dead?
 
[CHORUS]
C5    D5     B5
Every time I look in my past
C5       D5     B5
I always wish I was there
C5        D5          B5
I wish my youth would forever last
C5            D5       B5
Why are these times so unfair?
 
[VERSE]
B5         A5          E        B5
Look at my friends and see what they've done
B5    A5        E             B5
Ask myself why they've had to change
B5     A5          E         B5
I like them better when they were young
B5            A5    E     B5
Now all these times are rearranged
B5     A5       E           B5
I look down and stand there and cry
B5      A5   E           B5
Nothing ever will be the same
B5         A5      E         B5
The sun is rising, now I ask why?
B5             A5       E              B5
The clouds now fall and here comes the rain
 
[CHORUS]
C5    D5     B5
Every time I look in my past
C5       D5     B5
I always wish I was there
C5        D5          B5
I wish my youth would forever last
C5            D5       B5
Why are these times so unfair?

no, I'm pretty sure this song is in standard tuning and not in 3-flat tuning.
