|D              |D          |Bm             |Bm   |
 Holdin' me back,  gravity’s holdin' me back
             |E                        |E                 |A                |A   |
I want you to hold out the palm of your hand, why don't we leave it at that?
|D             |D                |Bm             |Bm   |
 Nothin' to say,  when everything gets in the way
            |E              |E                |A             |A   |
Seems you cannot be replaced,  and I'm the one who will stay, oh

|D   |D      |Bm    |Bm       |E   |E    |A                |A         |
      In this world, it's just us,    you know it's not the same as it
|D   |D      |Bm    |Bm       |E   |E    |A                |A         |
 was, in this world, it's just us,    you know it's not the same as it
|D   |D      |Bm   |Bm     |E   |E    |A                |A   |
 was,   as it was,    as it was,   you know it's not the same

|D               |D              |Bm           |Bm   |
 Answer the phone  "Harry, you're no good alone
           |E                     |E                  |A                 |A   |
Why are you sittin' at home on the floor? What kind of pills are you on?"
|D               |D             |Bm            |Bm  |
 Ringin' the bell,  and nobody's comin' to help
          |E               |E                 |A                     |A   |
Your daddy lives by himself,  he just wants to know that you're well, oh

|D   |D      |Bm    |Bm       |E   |E    |A                |A         |
      In this world, it's just us,    you know it's not the same as it
|D   |D      |Bm    |Bm       |E   |E    |A                |A         |
 was, in this world, it's just us,    you know it's not the same as it
|D   |D      |Bm   |Bm     |E   |E    |A                |A   |
 was,   as it was,    as it was,   you know it's not the same

|D                  |D                    |Bm                          |Bm             |
 Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet, I don't wanna talk about the way that it was
|E             |E                   |A                       |A                   |
 Leave America, two kids follow her, I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first

|D     |D      |Bm     |Bm     |
|E     |E      |A      |A      |
          As it was

   |D                |D         |Bm   |Bm   |
You know it's not the same as it was
     |E   |E      |A   |A   |
As it was,   as it was
