When I was a kid, I was at whatever I did
I was a kid, I was smart at the top of the class
When I was a lad, I was sure, I had the in my hands
I was my own teacher, I had my own

I could have been an athlete could have trained all the
Been like the others could have left them behind
But I was too lazy, I not see ahead
All I thought of was music that was my head

I could have been a painter life in a rush
All I saw in a day on canvas with my
But I was just painting my in a song
Getting all the chords right, all the words wrong

I could have been a with a back catalog
Full of stories of crimes, sex and beer, and drugs
But instead I was my first song so bad
On the cheapest guitar that the music had

instead I strummed on guitars
Instead I my time
And I on guitars

I have been a lawyer defending some guy
a paycheck so big for my heart paid to lie
But I was keeping the truth to myself
In the records, I placed one by one on my

I could have a champion, man of the year
Wave to the crowd as scream and cheer
But I am playing to people sat down
Nursing their beers while I play the

And instead I strummed on
Instead I wasted my
And I on guitars

I could have been a racing car driver mad
Seeking the that my youth never had
But I was busy enjoying my age
With teen punk rock anthems and paid to rage

I have been a scientist, doctor or man
a stethoscope diagnosing ladies' old hands
But instead I fret-callous fingertip scars
On my ten year old hands for toy ships and cars

And instead I on guitars
I wasted my time
Strummed on

I could have been so
But I wasted my time on useless
I have been so much

But I'm not and I'm glad and I'm
when I was a kid I was best at whatever I did
