[Intro]
Bb [Verse]
Eb It's been some time
Bb
Since the smile upon my face
Ab Had I sneaked previewing town Bb It's been a while since
I gave chase
F It's been some time since the
C
Girl from round my way
Bb Came and took me by the hand
C Db Been a long time since
I came around
Eb I can remember when
Bb
I stood on my head
Ab Walking straight across the ground
Bb Still picture their laughing faces [Chorus]
F Eb Ab G Catch me, I'm falling into my past
F Eb Catch me, the deeper
Ab G
The louder the laugh [Verse]
Eb I was told to grow up soon,
Bb
Face my consequences
Ab Being told it was high time,
Bb
High time to come to my senses
F Climbing up to the top floor,
C
Stood the look of pleasure
Bb C Such a silly aged man with
Db
An attic full of treasure
[Chorus]
G F Bb A Catch me, I'm falling into my past
G F Bb A Deeper, the deeper the louder the laugh [Interlude]
Eb Bb Ab Bb Eb
Bb Ab Bb B [Bridge]
Db Remember when I was ten,
Ebm7
Things were somewhat better then
Db Gb Time went by so easily, is this the
Way life's supposed to be?
Db But looking back I wonder why it
Ebm
Seems to pass so quickly by
Db Memories can make you cry,
Gb
I close my eyes,
Eb
My tears I try to hide
[Verse]
Eb Bb I was thinking about Tamer Lane
Ab Of all the funny places
Bb I was thinking, a short time ago [Chorus]
F Eb Ab G Catch me, I'm falling into my past
F Eb Catch me, the deeper the
Ab G
Louder the laugh

F Eb Deeper, the deeper the
Ab G
Louder the laugh [Outro]
