F                                    A#
Jack & Diane painted a picture of my life and
my dreams
F                          A#
suddenly this crazy world made more sense to me
F             C              A#
I heard it today and couldn't help but sing along
Gm                           C
cause everytime I hear that song

Chorus:
       F
I go back to a two tone short bed Chevy
 A#
Drivin my first love out to the levy
 F                           A#
Livin life with no sense of time
          F
And I go back to the field of a fifty yard line
   A#
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
 F                                     A#
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Gm                     C
Everytime I hear that song,
      F  A#      F  A#
I go back, I go back

I used to rock all night long
to "Keep On Rocking Me Baby"
Frat parties, college bars, just
trying to impress the ladies
Well I heard it today and
I couldn't help but sing along
Because every time I hear that song

Chorus:
And I go back to the smell of an old gym floor
And the taste of salt on a Carolina shore
After graduation and drinking goodbye to friends
And I go back to watchin summer fade to fall
Growin up too fast and I do recall
Wishin time would stop right in its tracks
Everytime I hear that song, I go back
I go back

Dm                        A#
We all, have a song that somehow stamped our lives,
Gm                    C
Takes us to another place and time,

Chorus:
So I go back to a pew, preacher, and a choir
Singing bout God, brimstone, and fire
And the smell of Sunday chicken after church
And I go back to the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him
Now "Only The Good Die Young" stops me in my tracks
Every time I hear that song
I go back

I go back
To the feel of a fifty yard line
A blanket, a girl, some raspberry wine
I go back (I go back)
To watching summer fade to fall
Growing up too fast and I do recall
I go back (I go back)
To the loss of a real good friend
And the sixteen summers I shared with him
I go back, I go back, I go back
