[Intro]
 
Bm F# G F# Bm
 
[Chorus]
           F#
When I was older
        G
I was a sailor
           F#
On an open sea
Bm               F#
But now I'm underwater
               G
And my skin is paler
                    F#
Than it should ever be
Bm
Mhm
 
[Verse]
               F#
I'm on my back again
 
Dreaming of a time and place
              G
Where you and I remain the best of friends
                       F#
Even after all this ends
 
Can we pretend?
Bm
I'm on my—
               F#
I'm on my back again
 
It's seeming more and more
                 G
Like all we ever do is see
 
How far it bends
                                F#
Before it breaks in half and then
 
We bend it back again
 
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm
Guess I got caught in the middle of it
 
Yes I've been taught, got a little of it
F#
In my blood, in my blood
G
Memories burn like a forest fire
                                     F#
Heavy rain turns any funeral pyre to mud
 
In the flood
 
[Chorus]
Bm            F#
When I was older
        G
I was a sailor
           F#
On an open sea
Bm               F#7
But now I'm underwater
               G
And my skin is paler
                    F#
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
F#
Then going over you, I'm overdue for no endeavors
 
Nobody lonely like I'm lonely and I don't know whether
G
You'd really like it in the limelight
 
You'd sympathize with all the bad guys
F#
I'm still a victim in my own right
                                          Bm
But I'm the villain in my own eyes, yeah
 
[Outro]
           F#
When I was older
        G
I was a sailor
           F#
On an open sea
