If I could have a beer with younger me
I’d open up a tab for us both
He’d probably have one too many
And I’d laugh at jokes that I already know
I’d let him talk, there’s so much I forgot
Like details of that night in Tennessee
I’d recognize that fire in his eyes
But I’d want to tell him just a couple things
[Chorus]
Don’t stop trying, keep on fighting
Take it from me you’re doing better than you think
You ain’t that old yet, don’t you forget
Live in the moment it goes by in a blink
We’d both have our own point of view
If I could have a beer with younger me
We’d both learn a thing or two
If I could have a beer with younger me
He’d ask if I ever settled down
I’d say I married up, got a couple little ones
That look just like you running round
He’d complain about his parents, and I’d just sit and listen
I know how much he’ll miss them one day
I’d talk about my age and how I miss those glory days
If I know me, I guarantee he’d say
[Chorus]
Don’t stop trying, keep on fighting
Take it from me you’re doing better than you think
You ain’t that old yet, don’t you forget
Live in the moment it goes by in a blink
We’d both have our own point of view
If I could have a beer with younger me
We’d both learn a thing or two
Some days you’ll fall apart
But you’ll pick up the pieces
You’re gonna lose your way and find your way right back to Jesus
I promise you’re gonna make it through
Don’t know who’d be talking to who
[Outro]
If I could have a beer with younger me
We’d both learn a thing or two
If I could have a beer with younger me
We’d both learn a thing or two
