Was It 26

Chris Stapleton

Transposer:

Chris Stapleton version of Was it 26 Tune to D tuning For intro and opening finger an open Dsus2 on the 4th fret Slide up to 7th fret then down to second fret This also played as a musical bridge between chorus and verse Great fun with this song [Verse] Livin’ hard was easy when I was young and bulletproof I had no chains to bind me just a guitar and a roof Emptied every bottle when I poured I never missed I had bloodshot eyes at 25 or was it 26? It didn’t seem to matter what price I had to pay ’Cause anything worth having I’d just lose it anyway Friends worried about me they asked if I was sick Thought I would die at 25 or was it 26? [Chorus] Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melting in my 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 25 or was it 26? [Verse] I met a girl from Georiga smart pretty college grad I thought my luck was changing up till then it’d all been bad Guess I fell in love with her all it took was one kiss But then she said goodbye at 25 or was it 26? [Chorus] Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melting in my 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 25 or was it 26? [Verse] Yeah I"ve been down the road before almost as far as hell Deception or redemption I guess only time will tell I have in the knowledge that God gave us a gift So G Em I couldn’t hide at 25 or was it 26? [Chorus] Those two years run together like whiskey over ice Melting in my 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 25 or was it 26? I’d like another try at 25 or was it 26?

Cette chanson évoque des souvenirs d'une jeunesse insouciante marquée par des excès et des choix parfois destructeurs. L'artiste se remémore des moments passés entre 25 et 26 ans, où la vie semblait être un mélange de plaisirs et de douleurs, entre l'ivresse et des relations éphémères. Il réfléchit à l'errance de ces années, à la recherche de l'amour et à la prise de conscience des conséquences de ses actes, tout en laissant transparaître un sentiment de nostalgie. Dans un cadre où l’on côtoie l’amour et la solitude, il explique comment une rencontre importante a changé sa perception de la vie, même si ce bonheur fut de courte durée. En fin de compte, il évoque le désir de revivre ces années, avec une sagesse et une compréhension qu'il n’avait pas à l’époque, tout en reconnaissant la grâce et les dons que la vie lui a offerts, même dans les moments difficiles.
