As It Was

[Intro ]
Am7    D    G 


 
C 
Holdin' me back 
          Am7 
Gravity's holdin' me back 
              D 
I want you to hold out the palm of your hand 
             G 
Why don't we leave it at that? 
C 
Nothin' to say 
                Am7 
When everything gets in the way 
             D 
Seems you cannot be replaced 
            G                         C 
And I'm the one who will stay, oh-oh-oh 
 

 
        Am7              D 
In this world, it's just us 
    G                            C 
You know it's not the same as it was 
        Am7              D 
In this world, it's just us 
    G                            C 
You know it's not the same as it was 
      Am7        D 
As it was, as it was 
    G 
You know it's not the same 
 

 
C 
Answer the phone 
               Am7 
"Harry, you're no good alone 
            D 
Why are you sittin' at home on the floor? 
             G 
What kind of pills are you on?" 
C 
Ringin' the bell 
         Am7 
Nobody's comin' to help 
           D 
Your daddy lives by himself 
                 G                            C 
He just wants to know that you're well, oh-oh-oh 
 

 
        Am7              D 
In this world, it's just us 
    G                            C 
You know it's not the same as it was 
        Am7              D 
In this world, it's just us 
    G                            C 
You know it's not the same as it was 
      Am7        D 
As it was, as it was 
    G 
You know it's not the same 
 

 
C 
Go home, get ahead, light-speed internet 
Am 
I don't wanna talk about the way it was 
D 
Leave America, two kids follow her 
G 
I don't wanna talk about who's doin' it first
