Intro: A
 
Verse:
A             Dbm
I wish it was 2004
                                      Gbm
I wish my favorite bands were still on tour
                                E
I wish everything wasn’t so, so complicated
       A                          Dbm
and I, I wish that I was still as tall
                               Gbm
as the markings on the kitchen wall
                                           A7
Wish I could gain back the confidence that they created
 
Chorus:
D                             E
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Gbm     E
I know you think
D       A7
it’s all in my head
D        E
I'm crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Gbm            Gbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    E                   E
for someone to come and take me away
D                  E                 A
and say we’re going back to 2004
 
Verse:
A                                   Dbm
I, I never had it all quite figured out
                                    Gbm
I never really learned what growing up was all about
 E
    and I still don’t know
              A                                  Dbm
And there are so many things that I wish I could say I’ve done
                   Gbm
They say that time flies when you’re having fun
     A7
Does time only fly when you’re young
 
Chorus:
D                             E
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Gbm     E
I know you think
D       A7
it’s all in my head
D        E
I'm crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Gbm            Gbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    E                   E
for someone to come and take me away
D                  E
and say we’re going back to 2004
 
Bridge:
Gbm                       E
    Looking back on it I know that I am fortunate
    D
and I can not complain
    E
The nerves, the stress, the total mess
 
It's all inside my brain
Gbm                          E                     D
but growing up just makes me really really really scared
    E
And I don’t think that I’m prepared
 
Pre-Chorus:
A
I, I wish it was it 2004
Dbm
   I wish my childhood was still in store
Gbm
   and I wish everything wasn’t so
A7
   so complicated
 
Chorus:
D                             E
Lately things haven’t been the best for me
Gbm     E
I know you think
          D  A7
that it’s all in my head
      D            E
and I must be crazy for wondering what it’s all for
    Gbm            Gbm
but every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    E                   E
for someone to come and take me away
D                  E
and say we’re going back to 2000
      Gbm            Gbm
Yeah, every day I’m thinkin' of ways
    E                   E
for someone to come and take me away
D                  E               A
and say we’re going back to 2004
