Intro: Bm D/F# | G D/F# | Em7 | D

Bm        F#m                  G   D/F#
Everybody loves the things you do,
                 Em7                 D
From the way you talk to the way you move.
Bm        D/F#     G            D/F#
Everybody here is watching you,
                    Em7
’Cause you feel like home,
                     D         D/C# Bm
You’re like a dream come true.

          F#m                 G     D/F#
But if by chance you’re here alone,
             Em7             D   D/C# Bm
Can I have a moment before I go?
                    D/F#        G          D/F#
’Cause I’ve been by myself all night long,
              Em7               Asus4
Hoping you’re someone I used to know.

 A                 G
   You look like a movie,
 A                  F#m7
   You sound like a song.
 G
   My God, this reminds me
 A                 F#m7
   Of when we were young.

Chorus:
   A7       D              F#m
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        G              A                 D
     In case it is the last time that we might
         F#m            G                 A
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Bm             F#m
     We were sad of getting old,
                G
     It made us restless.
   Gm6                  Em7
     It was just like a movie,
                        Asus4  A
     It was just like a song.

Bm       F#m              G       D/F#
I was so scared to face my fears,
       Em7                   D     D/C# Bm
Nobody told me that you’d be here.
            D/F#         G      D/F#
And I swear you moved overseas,
            Em                 Asus4
That’s what you said when you left me.

 A                       G
   You still look like a movie,
 A                        F#m7
   You still sound like a song.
 G
   My God, this reminds me
 A                 F#m7
   Of when we were young.

Chorus:
   A7       D              F#m
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        G              A                 D
     In case it is the last time that we might
         F#m            G                 A
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Bm             F#m
     We were sad of getting old,
                G
     It made us restless.
   Gm6                  Em7
     It was just like a movie,
                        Asus4
     It was just like a song.

   F#7/Bb  Bm
     When we were young.
   D/A     Gadd9
     When we were young.
   D/F#    Em7
     When we were young.
           Asus4
     When we were young.

Bridge:
 F#7/Bb Bm      D/A
   It’s hard to admit
        Gadd9           D/F#
   That everything just takes me back
           Em7
   To when you were there,
           Asus4
   To when you were there.
 F#7/Bb  Bm               D/A
   And a part of me keeps holding on
   Gadd9           D/F#
   Just in case it hasn’t gone,
           Em7
   I guess I still care.
      Asus4
   Do you still care?

 A                    G
   It was just like a movie,
 A                    F#m7
   It was just like a song.
 G
   My God, this reminds me
 A                 F#m7
   Of when we were young,
 A7      D
   When we were young,
 F#m7    G
   When we were young,
 A       D
   When we were young,
 F#m7    G
   When we were young.

Chorus:
   A7       D              F#m
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        G              A                 D
     In case it is the last time that we might
         F#m            G              A
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Bm             F#m
     We were sad of getting old,
                G
     It made us restless.
   A7           Bm             F#m
     Oh, I’m so mad at getting old,
                 G
     It makes me reckless.
   Gm6                  Em7
     It was just like a movie,
                        Asus4
     It was just like a song.
   A              D
     When we were young.
