Am Em F C/E
Dm C
[Verse 1]
Am Em F C/E
Everybody loves the things you do
Dm C
From the way you talk to the way you move
Am Em F C/E
Everybody here is watching you
Dm C C C/B
Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come true
Am Em F C/E
But if by chance you're here alone
Dm C C C/B
Can I have a moment before I go
Am Em F C/E
Cause I've been by myself all night long
Dm Gsus4 G
Hoping you're someone I used to know
[Pre-Chorus]
F G
You look like a movie
Em F
You sound like a song
F G
My God this reminds me
Em G
Of when we were young
[Chorus]
C Em F G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
C Em F G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
Am C/E F Fm
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Dm F Gsus4 G
It was just like a movie, it was just like a song
[Verse 2]
Am Em F C/E
I was so scared to face my fears
Dm C C C/B
Cause nobody told me that you'd be here
Am Em F C/E
And I swear you moved overseas
Dm Gsus4 G
That's what you said when you left me
[Pre-Chorus]
F G
You still look like a movie
Em F
You still sound like a song
F G
My God this reminds me
Em G
Of when we were young
[Chorus]
C Em F G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
C Em F G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
Am C/E F Fm
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Dm F G G/Ab
It was just like a movie, it was just like a song
[Bridge]
Am C/G
When we were young
F C/E
When we were young
Am C/G
When we were young
F G/Ab
When we were young
Am C/G F C/E
It's hard to admit that, everything just takes me back
Dm
To when you were there
G G/Ab
To when you were there
Am C/G F C/E
And a part of me keeps holding on, just in case it hasn't gone
Dm
I guess I still care
G
Do you still care?
[Pre-Chorus]
F G
It was just like a movie
Em F
It was just like a song
F G
My God this reminds me
Em G
Of when we were young
[Bridge]
C Em
When we were young
F G
When we were young
C Em
When we were young
F G
When we were young
[Chorus]
C Em F G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
C Em F G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
Am C/E F G
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Am C/E F Fm
Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old, it makes me reckless
Dm F Gsus4 G
It was just like a movie, it was just like a song
C
When we were young
