Verse 1:

F#m        E                    D  C#m
 Everybody loves the things you do
                  F#m                  A/C#
 From the way you talk to the way you move
F#m        E        D          C#m
 Everybody here is watching you
                      Bm                        A/C#
 Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come true

F#m        E                  D   C#m
 But if by chance you're here alone
               F#m              A/C#
 Can I have a moment before I go
F#m                 E                D   C#m
 Cause I've been by myself all night long
                Bm                 E
 Hoping you're someone I used to know


Pre-Chorus:

                  D     E
 You look like a movie
                   C#m  D
 You sound like a song
                D        E
 My god this reminds me
                   C#m  E
 Of when we were young


Chorus:

          A            C#m                D              E
 Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
          A         C#m            D              E
 That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
          F#m           A/C#             D        Dm
 We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
                     Bm  D                     E
 It was just like a movie, it was just like a song


Verse 2:

F#m       E                 D    C#m
 I was so scared to face my fears
               F#m                    A/C#
 Cause nobody told me that you'd be here
F#m          E              D   C#m
 And I swear you moved overseas
              Bm                     E
 That's what you said when you left me


Pre-Chorus:

                        D     E
 You still look like a movie
                         C#m  D
 You still sound like a song
                D        E
 My god this reminds me
                   C#m  E
 Of when we were young


Chorus:

          A            C#m                D              E
 Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
          A         C#m            D              E
 That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
          F#m           A/C#             D        Dm
 We were sad of getting old, it made us restless

 It was just like a movie, it was just like a song

 When we were young


Verse 3:

       F#m    E           D                A/C#
 It's hard to admit that, everything just takes me back
          Bm           A
 To when you were there
          E            E/F
 To when you were there
        F#m             E          D               A/C#
 And a part of me keeps holding on just in case it hasn't gone
         Bm
 I guess I still care
     E
 Do you still care?


Pre-Chorus:

                     D     E
 It was just like a movie
                     C#m  D
 It was just like a song
                D        E
 My god this reminds me
                   C#m  E
 Of when we were young

 That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
          F#m           A/C#             D       E

             F#m            A/C#              D       Dm
 Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old, it makes me reckless
                     Bm  D                     E
 It was just like a movie, it was just like a song
               A
