Feel like another life

This isn't like the first time anymore
Em F
And I've been chasing after all

Digging for the lost memories

Of our youth written in fire

You always said it's not too late for me

Leaving me so I can trust myself

There was lightning then and those

Songs were ?: true
Am Am7 Em7 Am Am7 Em7
No wonder I still think so much about you
G
But these days
F Em
My heart feels too heavy
G
And those days
F Em
Are someone else's life

Am G
This isn't like the first time anymore

It's only that it feels that way

Try to keep your heart on higher shelves once
