[Intro]
G C D Em C
[Verse 1]
Bm
Break my soul in two looking for you
C
But you're right here
D
If I can't relate to you anymore
Em C
Then who am I related to?
Bm
And if this is the long haul
C
How'd we get here so soon?
D
Did I close my fist around something delicate?
Em C
Did I shatter you?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
And I'm sitting on a bench in Coney Island
G
Wondering where did my baby go?
Bm
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
C D
Sorry for not making you my centerfold
[Chorus]
Em
Over and over
C
Lost again with no surprises
G/B
Disappointments close your eyes
Bm C
And it gets colder and colder
D
When the sun goes down
Em C
[Verse 2]
Bm
The question pounds my head
C
What's a lifetime of achievement
D
If I pushed you to the edge?
Em C
But you were too polite to leave me
Bm
Do you miss the rogue
C
Who coaxed you into paradise and left you there?
D
Will you forgive my soul
Em C
When you're too wise to trust me and too old to care?
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
'Cause we were like the mall before the internet
G
It was the one place to be
Bm
The mischief, the gift-wrapped suburban dreams
C D
Sorry for not winning you an arcade ring
[Chorus]
Em
Over and over
C
Lost again with no surprises
G/B
Disappointments close your eyes
Bm C
And it gets colder and colder
D
When the sun goes down
[Bridge]
Em C
Were you waiting at our old spot
In the tree line
G
By the gold clock
Did I leave you hanging every single day?
Bm C
Were you standing in the hallway
D
With a big cake, happy birthday
Did I paint your bluest skies the darkest grey?
Em
A universe away
C
And when I got into the accident
G
The sight that flashed before me was your face
Bm D
But when I walked up to the podium I think that I forgot to say your name
[Pre-Chorus]
Em C
I'm on a bench in Coney Island
G
Wondering where did my baby go
Bm
The fast times, the bright lights, the merry go
C D
Sorry for not making you my centerfold
[Chorus]
Em
Over and over
C
Lost again with no surprises
G/B
Disappointments close your eyes
Bm C
And it gets colder and colder
D
When the sun goes down
[Outro]
Em C
When the sun goes down
G
The sight that flashed before me was your face
Bm C
When the sun goes down
D
But I think that I forgot to say your name
Em C
Over and over
G
Sorry for not making you my, making you my
Bm C D
Making you my centerfold
