GUITARS & HARP INTRO)

runnin' with the boys for nights on end

never lookin' back on where I've been

in my wilder days,

wilder days

 

chasin' all the dreams that a young man dreams

findin' out the hard way, what freedom means

in my wilder days,

wilder days

 

I've been a lonely stranger out on a limb

lookin' for someone to take me in

love don't come easy - goin' through this stage

careful baby, of these wilder days

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

 

starin' at me with those innocent eyes

I'm tellin' you babe, I've learned to be wise

in my wilder days,

wilder days

 

you're ridin' it out on the stormy sea

takin' a chance on someone like me

in my wilder days,

wilder days

 

I've been a lonely stranger out on a limb

lookin' for someone to take me in

love don't come easy - goin' through this stage

careful baby, of these wilder days

(GUITAR SOLO)

 

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

(you'd better be careful baby)

oh, wilder days

(these are wilder days)

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

(you'd better be careful baby)

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

(these are wilder days)

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days

(these are wilder days)

oh, wilder days

oh, wilder days
