[Verse 1]
F              C                  Bb               C
Looking back upon my life and the places that I've been
C                F                        Bb              C
Pictures, faces, girls that I've loved, I try to remember when
F              C                 Bb              C
Faded memories on the wall, some names I have forgotten
C                 F         Bb              C
But each one is a memory, I look back on so often
 
[Chorus]
  F             C
I look into the past
  F               C
I want to make it last
      Bb
I was there
      C
I was there
  F             C
I look into the past
  F               C
I want to make it last
      Bb
I was there
      C
I was there

[Verse 2]
F                 C                    Bb                C
Looking back what I have done, there's lots more life to live
C                F              Bb                  C
At times, I feel overwhelmed, I question what I can give
F                  C              Bb                C
But I don't let it get me down or cause me too much sorrow
C                      F           Bb            C
There's no doubt about who I am, I always have tomorrow
 
[Chorus]
  F             C
I look into the past
  F               C
I want to make it last
      Bb
I was there
      C
I was there
  F             C
I look into the past
  F               C
I want to make it last
      Bb
I was there
      C
I was there

  Looking now at who I am (who am I?)
D                C            D              C
  I don't let it get me down (I don't let it get me down)
