[Intro]
[Bmadd9] [F#7] [Gmaj7] [F#7]
[Chorus]
[Bmadd9]When I was ol[F#7]older
I was a s[Gmaj7]sailor
On an open s[F#7]sea
[Bmadd9]But now I'm underw[F#7]underwater
And my skin is p[Gmaj7]paler
Than it should ever [F#7]be
Bmadd9
Mhm
 
[Verse]
[Bmadd9]I'm on my back ag[F#7]again
 
Dreaming of a time and place
Where you and [Gmaj7]I remain the best of friends
Even after all this end[F#7]ends
 
Can we pretend?
Bmadd9
I'm on my—
I'm on my back [F#7]again
 
It's seeming more and more
Like all we ever [Gmaj7]do is see how far it bends
Before it breaks in half and th[F#7]then
 
We bend it back again
 
[Pre-chorus]
Bmadd9
Guess I got caught in the middle of it
 
Yes I've been taught, got a little of it
In my bl[F#7]blood, in my blood
[Gmaj7]Memories burn like a forest fire
Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to [F#7]mud
In the flood
 
[Chorus]
[Bmadd9]When I was ol[F#7]older
I was a s[Gmaj7]sailor
On an open s[F#7]sea
[Bmadd9]But now I'm underw[F#7]underwater
And my skin is p[Gmaj7]paler
Than it should ever [F#7]be
 
[Bridge]
Bmadd9
I'm watching movies back to back.
 
In black and white, I never
seen anybody do it like I do it any better
[F#7]Then going over you, I'm
overdue for no endeavors
 
Nobody lonely like I'm
lonely and I don't know whether
[Gmaj7]You'd really like it in the limelight
 
You'd sympathize with all the bad guys
[F#7]I'm still a victim in my own right
 
But I'm the villain in my own eyes, yeah
 
[Outro]
[Bmadd9]When I was ol[F#7]older
I was a s[Gmaj7]sailor
On an open s[F#7]sea
