Intro: Gm Bb | Eb Bb | Cm7 | Bb

Gm        Dm                   Eb  Bb
Everybody loves the things you do,
                 Cm7                 Bb
From the way you talk to the way you move.
Gm        Bb       Eb           Bb
Everybody here is watching you,
                    Cm7
’Cause you feel like home,
                     Bb             Gm
You’re like a dream come true.

          Dm                  Eb    Bb
But if by chance you’re here alone,
             Cm7             Bb       Gm
Can I have a moment before I go?
                    Bb          Eb         Bb
’Cause I’ve been by myself all night long,
              Cm7               F
Hoping you’re someone I used to know.

 F                 Eb
   You look like a movie,
 F                  Dm7
   You sound like a song.
 Eb
   My God, this reminds me
 F                 Dm7
   Of when we were young.

Chorus:
   F7       Bb             Dm
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        Eb             F                 Bb
     In case it is the last time that we might
         Dm             Eb                F
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Gm             Dm
     We were sad of getting old,
                Eb
     It made us restless.
   Ebm                  Cm7
     It was just like a movie,
                        F
     It was just like a song.

Gm       Dm               Eb      Bb
I was so scared to face my fears,
       Cm7                   Bb         Gm
Nobody told me that you’d be here.
            Bb           Eb     Bb
And I swear you moved overseas,
            Cm                 F
That’s what you said when you left me.

 F                       Eb
   You still look like a movie,
 F                        Dm7
   You still sound like a song.
 Eb
   My God, this reminds me
 F                 Dm7
   Of when we were young.

Chorus:
   F7       Bb             Dm
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        Eb             F                 Bb
     In case it is the last time that we might
         Dm             Eb                F
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Gm             Dm
     We were sad of getting old,
                Eb
     It made us restless.
   Ebm                  Cm7
     It was just like a movie,
                        F
     It was just like a song.

   D7      Gm
     When we were young.
   Bb      Eb
     When we were young.
   Bb      Cm7
     When we were young.
           F
     When we were young.

Bridge:
 D7     Gm      Bb
   It’s hard to admit
        Eb              Bb
   That everything just takes me back
           Cm7
   To when you were there,
           F
   To when you were there.
 D7      Gm               Bb
   And a part of me keeps holding on
   Eb              Bb
   Just in case it hasn’t gone,
           Cm7
   I guess I still care.
      F
   Do you still care?

 F                    Eb
   It was just like a movie,
 F                    Dm7
   It was just like a song.
 Eb
   My God, this reminds me
 F                 Dm7
   Of when we were young,
 F7      Bb
   When we were young,
 Dm7     Eb
   When we were young,
 F       Bb
   When we were young,
 Dm7     Eb
   When we were young.

Chorus:
   F7       Bb             Dm
     Let me photograph you in this light,
        Eb             F                 Bb
     In case it is the last time that we might
         Dm             Eb             F
     Be exactly like we were before we realised.
             Gm             Dm
     We were sad of getting old,
                Eb
     It made us restless.
   F7           Gm             Dm
     Oh, I’m so mad at getting old,
                 Eb
     It makes me reckless.
   Ebm                  Cm7
     It was just like a movie,
                        F
     It was just like a song.
                  Bb
     When we were young.
