Was It 26
Chris Stapleton

[Verse 1]

Livin' hard was easy when I was young and bullet-proof

I had no chains to bind me, just a guitar and a roof

Emptied every bottle, when I poured I never missed

I had blood shot eyes at twenty-five or was it twenty-six

Didn't seem to matter what price I had to pay

Cause anything worth havin', I’d just lose anyway

Friends worried about me they’d asked if I was sick

Thought I wouldn’t die at twenty-five or was it twenty-six


[Chorus]

Those two years run together like whiskey over ice

Melted into memories like somebody else's life

I’m glad to say, I’ve come around

But if I could have one wish

I’d like another try at twenty-five

Or was it twenty-six



[Verse 2]

Met a girl from Georgia, smart and pretty, college grad

I thought my luck was changin' but then it all went bad

I guess I fell in love with her all it took was just one kiss

But then she said goodbye at twenty-five or was it twenty-six


[Chorus]


[Verse 3]

I've been down that road before almost as far as hell

Deception or redemption, I guess only time will tell

I have faith and the knowledge that God gave us a gift

I couldn't hide at twenty-five or was it twenty-six


[Chorus]
