[Intro]

Am Am Em Em F F C C Dm7 Dm7 G G

[Verse 1]

Am Am Em Em F F C C
Everybody loves the things you do
Dm7 Dm7 C C
From the way you talk, to the way you move
Am Am Em Em F F C C
Everybody here is watching you
Dm7 Dm7 C C
'Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come true

Am Am Em Em F F C C
But if by chance you're here alone
Dm7 Dm7 C C
Can I have a moment, before I go?
Am Am Em Em F F C C
'Cause I've been by myself all night long
Dm7 Dm7 G G
Hoping you're someone I used to know


[Pre-Chorus]

F F G G
You look like a movie
Em Em F F
You sound like a song
F F G G
My God, this reminds me
Em Em G G
Of when we were young


[Chorus]

C C Em Em F F G G
Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time
C C Em Em F F G G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realised
Am Am Em Em F F
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Dm7 Dm7 F F
It was just like a movie
G G
It was just like a song


[Verse 2]

Am Am Em Em F F C C
I was so scared to face my fears
Dm7 Dm7 C C
Cause nobody told me that you'd be here
Am Am Em Em F F C C
And I swore you moved overseas
Dm7 Dm7 G G
That's what you said, when you left me


[Pre-Chorus]

F F G G
You still look like a movie
Em Em F F
You still sound like a song
F F G G
My God, this reminds me
Em Em G G
Of when we were young


[Chorus]

C C Em Em F F G G
Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time
C C Em Em F F G G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realised
Am Am Em Em F F
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Dm7 Dm7 F F
It was just like a movie
G G
It was just like a song


[Bridge]

Am Am Em Em F F C C
When we were young, when we were young
Dm7 Dm7 F F G G
When we were young, when we were young


[Verse 3]

Am Am C C
It's hard to win me back
F F Em Em Dm7 Dm7
Everything just takes me back to when you were there
G G
To when you were there
Am Am C C F F Em Em
And a part of me keeps holding on just in case it hasn't gone
Dm7 Dm7
I guess I still care
G G
Do you still care?


[Pre-Chorus]

F F G G
It was just like a movie
Em Em F F
It was just like a song
F F G G
My God, this reminds me
Em Em G G
Of when we were young


[Bridge]

C C Em Em F F G G
When we were young, when we were young
C C Em Em F F G G
When we were young, when we were young


[Chorus]

C C Em Em F F G G
Let me photograph you in this light in case it is the last time
C C Em Em F F G G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realised
Am Am Em Em F F G G
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
Am Am Em Em F F
I'm so mad I'm getting old, it makes me reckless
Dm7 Dm7 F F
It was just like a movie
G G
It was just like a song
C C
When we were young

Lyrics are wrong
It's "It's hard to admit that" not "It's hard to win me back
Also some other parts are a bit different

I use the capo on 2 and strum DD UU UDUDU on mostly everything except the chorus where i like to strum a regular D DU UDU. Hope this helps!
