Verse: C Do you remember? Look at me. Em At all the things weʼd said weʼd be. Am Weʼd beat the house weʼd push the odds. F Weʼd take it all we had the cards. C With years to burn and years to trash. Em Livinʼ life based on flash. Am But somehow reaching for the stars. F D E C I think we went a bit too far. Chorus: C Dm Em Got to get back. Got to get back. Got to get back. F G C I never meant to take it this far. C Dm Em F G Got to get back. Got to get back. Got to get back. Verse: C When everything you touch turns gold. Em Can weigh you down. Can make you old. Am When metal doesnʼt ring the same. F Reaction from inside your brain. C And all the years we offered up. Em To gods who couldnʼt get enough. Am Though we still stay up all night. F D E C The mornings arenʼt as quite as bright. Chorus: C Dm Em Got to get back. Got to get back. Got to get back. F G C I never meant to take it this far. C Dm Em F G Got to get back. Got to get back. Got to get back. Verse: C And all those things we thought we learned. Em As we watch our bridges burn. Am While standing in the after glow. F I guess we gave them quite a show. C But whoʼs to say what itʼs about. Em When John Wayne caught the last train out. Am And Spock and Kirk have had enough. F D E C And no oneʼs left to beam me up.
