Verse 1:
B minorBm
 Break my soul in two looking for you
       C majorC
 But you're right here
D MajorD
 If I can't relate to you anymore
          E minorEm    C majorC
 Then who am I related to?
B minorBm
 And if this is the long haul
        C majorC
 How'd we get here so soon?
D MajorD
 Did I close my fist around something delicate?
   E minorEm       C majorC
 Did I shatter you?

Pre-Chorus:
     E minorEm              C majorC
 And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island
             G+G
 Wondering where did my baby go?
                     B minorBm
 The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
 C majorC            D MajorD
 Sorry for not making you my centerfold


Chorus:
      E minorEm
 Over and over
 C majorC
 Lost again with no surprises
 G/BG/B
 Disappointments close your eyes
   B minorBm         C majorC
 And it gets colder and colder
        D MajorD
 When the sun goes down

E minorEm  C majorC

Verse 2:
B minorBm
 The question pounds my head
            C majorC
 What's a lifetime of achievement
D MajorD
 If I pushed you to the edge?
               E minorEm    C majorC
 But you were too polite to leave me
B minorBm
 Do you miss the rogue
                  C majorC
 Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?
D MajorD
 Will you forgive my soul
                    E minorEm       C majorC
 When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care?


Pre-Chorus:
     E minorEm                C majorC
 'Cause we were like the mall before the internet
         G+G
 It was the one place to be
                  B minorBm
 The mischief, the gift-wrapped suburban dreams
 C majorC              D MajorD
 Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring


Chorus:
      E minorEm
 Over and over
 C majorC
 Lost again with no surprises
 G/BG/B
 Disappointments close your eyes
   B minorBm         C majorC
 And it gets colder and colder
        D MajorD
 When the sun goes down


Bridge:
E minorEm             C majorC
 Were you waiting at our old spot

 In the tree line
     G+G
 By the gold clock

 Did I leave you hanging every single day?
B minorBm             C majorC
 Were you standing in the hallway
             D MajorD
 With a big cake, happy birthday

 Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
     E minorEm
 The universe waits
       C majorC
 And when I got into the accident
   G+G
 The sight that flashed before me was your face
B minorBm                   D MajorD
 But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name


Pre-Chorus:
E minorEm             C majorC
 I'm on a bench in Coney Island
             G+G
 Wondering where did my baby go
                    B minorBm
 The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
 C majorC            D MajorD
 Sorry for not making you my centerfold


Chorus:
      E minorEm
 Over and over
 C majorC
 Lost again with no surprises
 G/BG/B
 Disappointments close your eyes
   B minorBm         C majorC
 And it gets colder and colder
        D MajorD
 When the sun goes down


Outro:
        E minorEm    C majorC
 When the sun goes down
   G+G
 The sight that flashed before me was your face
        B minorBm   C majorC
 When the sun goes down
    D MajorD
 But I think that I forgot to say your name
      E minorEm  C majorC
 Over and over
 G+G             B minorBm
 Sorry for not making you my, making you my
C majorC           D MajorD
 Making you my centerfold
