Bm Gb7 Gmaj7 Gb7
When I was older, I was a sailor, on an open sea
Bm Gb7 Gmaj7 Gb7
But now I'm underwater, and my skin is paler, than it should ever be
Bm
Mmm-hmmm
Verse 1:
Bm Gb7
I'm on my back again
Gmaj7
Dreaming of a time and place where you and I remain the best of friends
Gb7
Even after all this ends, can we pretend?
Bm Gb7
I'm on my, I'm on my back again
Gmaj7
It's seeming more and more like all we ever do is see how far it bends
Gb7
Before it breaks in half and then, we bend it back again
Pre-Chorus:
Bm
Guess I got caught in the middle of it
Gb7
Yes I've been taught, got a little of it in my blood, in my blood
Gmaj7
Memories burn like a forest fire
Gb7
Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud, in the flood
Chorus:
Bm Gb7 Gmaj7 Gb7
When I was older, I was a sailor, on an open sea
Bm Gb7 Gmaj7 Gb7
But now I'm underwater, and my skin is paler, than it should ever be
Bridge:
Bm
I'm watching movies back to back in black and white, I never
Seen anybody do it like I do it any better
Gb7
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
Gb7
I'm still a victim in my own right
But I'm the villain in my own eyes, yeah
Outro:
Bm Gb7 Gmaj7 Gb7
When I was older, I was a sailor, on an open sea
