Verse:
EmG
People ask me what itʼs like
A
Knowinʼ you

And how I hold myself at night

Watchinʼ you

Knowinʼ how I lost myself

And how I always lose myself
A
Wantinʼ you
EmGA x2
Verse:
EmGA
The city sky is hanginʼ low, it seems to know
EmGA
Iʼm findinʼ comfort where I can with all these ghosts
EmGA
I just wanna be alone when lights dim low
EmGA
And I Go home, and I Go home

Take me back the way that I was

Verse:
EmGA
I donʼt often use your name, but Iʼm cravinʼ to

And all these strangers look the same, but I look for you

As Iʼm crawlinʼ through the streets, itʼs a lonely view
EmGA
And I feel so blue, I feel so blue
EmGA x2
Bridge:
Em
My baby, donʼt look for me
DA
When I get lost on all these streets
Em
See myself, but itʼs not me
DA
Iʼm with the crowd, I cannot breathe

My babyʼs no good for me
DA
No good for me, no good for me
Em
My babyʼs no good for me
DA
And nothingʼs ever easy

Oh my God

Take me back the way that I was

What you want, I canʼt compete

You cross the line and I repeat

Youʼve always had it easy.

Youʼve always had it easy
CDG
You make me feel so sleazy

Take me back the way that I was.

The way that I was
