Back of My Mind Christopher Cross
Intro: (G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E) 3 times (*)
(G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E)*
I woke up to my world this morning
Took a long look in the looking glass
Last night I guess I had one or too many
[C#m7]Somebody tried to tell me [E]I had no class
(G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E)*
What ever happened to me
Maybe I've been living on lies
Never really had a dream come true
[A9]Then again I guess I [B]never really tried
[E]Now the [B/D#]years all [A/C#]slip away
And [E]things are [B/D#]like they're [A/C#]gonna stay
[E]All the [B/D#]roads I [A/C#]didn't take are just
[G#m7]One more thing in the [F#m7]back of my mind
[G#m7]Taking space and [F#m7]time
(G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E)*
Wish I'd finished that book I never started
Maybe that's the story of my life
Should've learned to play that saxophone
So I could [C#m7]tell my song to the st[E]reetlight
(G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E)*
Shouldn't have been so stuck on my own
Could've had a wife and a child
Should've made that house a home
I d[A9]on't know why my life is so w[B]ild
[E]Now the [B/D#]years all [A/C#]slip away
And [E]things are [B/D#]like they're [A/C#]gonna stay
[E]All the chan[B/D#]ces I [A/C#]didn't take are just
[G#m7]One more thing in the [F#m7]back of my mind
[G#m7]Taking space and [F#m7]time
[G#m7]One more thing in the [F#m7]back of my mind
Solo: (C#7/4 A7+) 3 times F#m7 A
(C#7/4 A7+) 3 times
(G#m7 G#7/4 F#/G# E)*
So I'm thinking about a walk in the sunlight
I've got to get my shadow behind me
Try and make some sense of it all
With my [F#m]feet on the gr[G#m]ound and my [A]heart still f[B]ree
[E]As the ye[B/D#]ars will s[A/C#]lip away
I'll l[E]et the c[B/D#]ards fall w[A/C#]here they may
[E]And all the [B/D#]roads I [A/C#]didn't take will be just
[G#m7]One more thing in the back of m[F#m7]y mind
[B]As the yea[F#/A#]rs will sl[E]ip away
[B]And the ca[F#/A#]rds fall [E]as they may
[B]All the ch[F#/A#]ances I [E]didn't take will be just
[D#m7]One more thing in the [C#m7]back of my mind
[D#m7]Taking space and [C#m7]time
[D#m7]One more thing in the [C#m7]back of my mind
[G#m7]One more thing in the [F#m7]back of my mind...
