Capo: 1st Fret
[Intro]
Am F C G
[Verse 1]
Am
I saw the part of you
F C
That only when you're older you will see too
G
You will see too
Am
I held the better cards
F C
But every stroke of luck has got a bleed through
G
It's got a bleed through
Am F
You held the balance of the time
C
That only blindly I could read you
G
But I could read you
Am
It's like you told me
F
Go forward slowly
C G
It's not a race to the end
[Chorus]
Am F
Well you look like yourself
C
But you're somebody else
G
Only it ain't on the surface
Am F
Well you talk like yourself
C
No, I hear someone else though
G
Now you're making me nervous
Am F C G
[Verse 2]
Am
You were the better part
F C
Of every bit of beating heart that I had
G
Whatever I had
Am
I finally sat alone
F
Pitch black flesh and bone
C G
Couldn't believe that you were gone
[Chorus]
Am F
Well you look like yourself
C
But you're somebody else
G
Only it ain't on the surface
Am F
Well you talk like yourself
C
No, I hear someone else though
G
Now you're making me nervous
Am F
Well you look like yourself
C
But you're somebody else
G
Only it ain't on the surface
Am F
Well you talk like yourself
C
No, I hear someone else though
G
Now you're making me nervous
[Bridge]
Am F C G
Am
Where are we?
F
Whe, where are, where are we, whe where are
C
are where we are we
G
ahh-are, we
[Chorus]
Am F
Well you look like yourself
C
But you're somebody else
G
Only it ain't on the surface
Am F
Well you talk like yourself
C
No, I hear someone else though
G
Now you're making me nervous
Am F
Well you look like yourself
C
But you're somebody else
G
Only it ain't on the surface
Am F
Well you talk like yourself
C
No, I hear someone else though
G
Now you're making me nervous
[Outro]
Am F C G
Am F
I saw the part of you that only when you're older
C G
You will see too, you will see too
