Intro: Cm Gm G# D# Fm    D#

Cm         Gm                   G#   D#
 Everybody loves the things you do,
                 Fm                   D#
From the way you talk to the way you move.
Cm         Gm          G#         D#
 Everybody here is watching you,
                   Fm
’Cause you feel like home,
                      D#       D# D Cm
You’re like a dream come true.

           Gm                  G#   D#
But if by chance you’re here alone,
              Fm              D#  D# D Cm
Can I have a moment before I go?
                     Gm         G#       D#
’Cause I’ve been by myself all night long,
               Fm                 A#
Hoping you’re someone I used to know.

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


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

Cm        Gm                G#    D#
I was so scared to face my fears,
        Fm                    D#    D# D Cm
Nobody told me that you’d be here.
            Gm             G#   D#
And I swear you moved overseas,
            Fm                 A#
That’s what you said when you left me.

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

  B      Cm      D#
   It’s hard to admit
        G#              Gm
   That everything just takes me back
           Fm
   To when you were there,
           A#            A#m
   To when you were there.
  B       Cm               D#
   And a part of me keeps holding on
    G#              Gm
   Just in case it hasn’t gone,
           Fm
   I guess I still care.
      A#
   Do you still care?

A#                     G#     A#
   It was just like a movie,

     Oh, I’m so mad at getting old,
                 G#       G#m
     It makes me reckless.
