    Bm           F# 
When I was older      
   F#        G 
I was a sailor 
  G          F# 
On an open sea 
   Bm             F# 
But now I'm underwater 
 F#             G 
And my skin is paler 
   G           F# 
Than it should ever be   
   Bm           F# 
I'm on my back again 
       F#              G 
Dreaming of a time and place 
     F#                       Bm 
Where you and I remain the best of friends 
    F#              G 
Even after all this ends 
  G        F# 
Can we pretend?     
   Bm 
I'm on my  
    Bm          F# 
I'm on my back again 
     F# 
It's seeming more and more 
      G 
Like all we ever do is see 
  G          F#  
How far it bends 
       Bm                F# 
Before it breaks in half and then 
   G             F# 
We bend it back again 
      Bm                  F# 
Guess I got caught in the middle of it 
       F# 
Yes, I've been taught, got a little of it 
       G         F# 
In my blood, in my blood 
        F# 
Memories burn like a forest fire 
     Bm                  F# 
Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud 
         F#     G    F# 
In the flood 

     Bm     F# 
When I was older  
      F#    G 
I was a sailor 
       G      F# 
On an open sea 
  Bm            F# 
But now I'm underwater 
   F#        G 
And my skin is paler 
       F#          
Than it should ever be 
   Bm                  F# 
I'm watching movies back to back 
        F#            G 
In black and white, I never 
        G               F# 
Seen anybody do it like I do it any better 
     Bm           F# 
Then going over you 
   F#      G            F#    
I'm overdue for no endeavors 
     Bm           F# 
Nobody lonely like I'm lonely 
    F#           G 
And I don't know whether 
   G                 F# 
You'd really like it in the limelight 
     Bm                     F# 
You'd sympathize with all the bad guys 
              F#           G 
I'm still a victim in my own right 
           G               F# 
But I'm the villain in my own eyes, yeah 
  Bm        F# 
When I was older 
  F#      G 
I was a sailor 
  G       F# 
On an open sea 

( Bm )
