Capo on 3rd fret

[Intro]
Am   Em    F   C
Dm       C
 
[Verse 1]
Am          Em                   F    C
  Everybody loves the things you do
                 Dm                  C
From the way you talk to the way you move
Am          Em              F      C
  Everybody here is watching  you
                    Dm                            C
Cause you feel like home, you're like a dream come  true
 
Am          Em                  F     C
  But if by chance you're here alone
             Dm              C
Can I have a moment before I go
Am                   Em               F     C
  Cause I've been by myself all night long
              Dm                G
Hoping you're someone  I used to know
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                 F      G
You look like a movie
                 Em     F
You sound like a song
              F         G
My God this reminds me
                Em     G
Of when we were young
 
[Chorus]
       C              Em                F              G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
        C          Em            F              G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
         Am            C               F         Fm
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
                   Dm     F                    G
It was just like a movie,   it was just like a song
 
[Verse 2]
Am          Em                F      C
   I was so scared to face my fears
           Dm                    C
And nobody told me that you'd be here
Am            Em              F     C
  And I swear you'd moved overseas
               Dm                   G
That's what you  said when you left me
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                       F     G
You still look like a movie
                       Em    F
You still sound like a song
              F         G
My God this reminds me
                Em     G
Of when we were young
 
[Chorus]
       C              Em                F              G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
        C          Em            F              G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
         Am            C               F         Fm
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
                   Dm     F                    G
It was just like a movie,   it was just like a song
 
[Bridge]
     Am            C
When we were young
     F             C
When we were young
     Dm
When we were young
     C             G
When we were young
 
     Am      C           F               C
It's hard to admit that, everything just takes me back
        Dm
To when you were there
        G
To when you were there
      Am               C           F               C
And a part of me keeps holding on, just in case it hasn't gone
        Dm
I guess I still care
   G
Do you still care?
 
[Pre-Chorus]
                    F     G
It was just like a movie
                   Em    F
It was just like a song
              F         G
My God this reminds me
                Em     G
Of when we were young
 
[Bridge]
     C             Em
When we were young
     F             G
When we were young
     C             Em
When we were young
     F             G
When we were young
 
[Chorus]
       C              Em                F              G
Let me photograph you in this light, in case it is the last time
        C          Em            F              G
That we might be exactly like we were before we realized
        Am             C               F       G
We were sad of getting old, it made us restless
           Am              C                F        Fm
Oh, I'm so mad I'm getting old, it makes me reckless
                   Dm     F                    G
It was just like a movie,   it was just like a song
              C
When we were young
