Verse 1:
D
Last night I smoked a cigarette
Gmaj7Em
My dad would have been so upset
D
Then we got tattoos by the coast
Gmaj7Em
And I just stood there like a ghost
Pre-Chorus:
D
Maybe I’m an old soul trapped in a young body
Gmaj7Em
Maybe you don’t really want me there at your birthday party
D
I’ll be there in the corner, thinking right over
Gmaj7Em
Every single word of the conversation we just had
Chorus:
D
So why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
D
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
why am I like this?
Verse 2:
D
I saw a girl crying on the train
Gmaj7Em
Gin and tonic from a can to ease the pain
D
I never asked if she was OK
Gmaj7Em
She just got up and walked away
Bridge:
BmAEm
It's like I'm looking down from the ceiling above
G5
Never in the moment, never giving enough
BmAEm
Let’s go out and shout the words we never said
G5
I got my mistakes on loop inside my head, inside my head
Chorus:
D
So why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
D
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
why am I like this?
D
So why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
D
Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I...
Gmaj7Em
why am I like this?
Outro:
D
Maybe I’m an old soul trapped in a young body
Gmaj7Em
Maybe you don’t really want me there...
D
I’ll be there in the corner, thinking right over
Gmaj7Em
Every single word of the conversation we just had
