[Eb] [Cm] [Gm] [Ab]
[Eb] [Fm] [Eb]
[Cm] [Eb] Everybody loves the [Ab] things you do [Eb] From the [Fm] way you [Ab] talk to the [Eb] way you move
[Cm] [Eb] Everybody here [Ab] is watching [Eb] you Cause you [Fm] feel like home, you're like [Eb] a dream come true
But [Cm] [C] [Eb] if by chance [Ab] you're here [Eb] alone [Gm] Can [Fm] I have a moment [F] [Eb] before I go?
[D] [Cm] Cause I've been [Eb] by myself all [Ab] night [Eb] long Hoping [Fm] you're someone I used [Ab] to [Bb] know
You look like [Ab] a movie, [Bb] sound like [Gm] a song [Ab] My God, this reminds me [Bb] of when we [Gm] were [Bb] young
Let me [Eb] photograph [Gm] you in this [Ab] light It [Bb] is the last time [Eb] that we might [Gm] be [Ab] like [Bb] [Cm] we were in the [Gm] [Ab]
[Abm] past
It was just [Fm] like a movie, [Ab] it was just like a song [Bb] I [Cm] [Eb] was so scared to [Ab] face my [Eb] fears
[Fm] Nobody told me [Bb] that [Eb] you'd be here [Cm] And [Eb] I swear you moved [Ab]
overseas
[Eb] [Fm] That's what you [Bb] said when you [Ab] left me [Bb] You still [Ab] look like a movie, [Bb] you still [Gm] sound like a [Ab] song
My God, this reminds [Bb] me of [Gm] when we were [Bb] young [Eb] [Gm] I feel like I'm in the [Ab] light It [Bb] is the time that [Eb] we [Gm] [Ab]
[Bb] [Cm] [Gm] [Ab]
met
[Abm] It was just like [Fm] a movie, it was just like [Bb] a [Eb] song
[Bm] [B] When [Cm] we were [Eb] young
[Ab]
[Eb] [Fm] [Eb]
[Abm] It's [Cm] hard [Eb] to admit that [Ab]
everything [Eb] just takes me back [Fm] to when you were there, [Eb] [Bb] to when you were [B] there
[Cm] The part of me [Eb] keeps holding on [Ab] just in case [Eb] you pass the door
[Fm] [Eb] Do you still [Bb] care?
It was [Ab] just like a movie, [Bb] it was [Gm] just like a [Ab] song
My God, this reminds [Bb] me of [Eb] when we were [Ab] young
[Eb] [Gm] When [Ab] we were [Bb] young
[Eb] [Ab]
[Bb] Let [Eb] me photograph you in this light [Ab]
[Eb] It is the last time that we might be [Ab] like
[Eb] [Cm] [Eb] [Ab] we were [Bb] in the past
It [Cm] [Eb] makes [Ab] me reckless
It was just [Fm] like a movie, it was just [Bb] like a song
When [Eb] we were young
