Tuning: G C E A (G C E A) D G Em Verse 1: D Last night I smoked a cigarette G Em My dad would have been so upset D Then we got tattoos by the coast G Em And I just stood there just like a ghost Pre-Chorus: D Maybe I'm an old soul trapped in a young body G Em Maybe you don’t really want me there at your birthday party D I'll be there in the corner, thinking right over G Em Every single word of the conversation we just had
Chorus: D So why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? Verse 2: D I saw a girl crying on the train G Em Gin and tonic from a can to ease the pain D And I never asked if she was okay G Em She just got up and walked away Bridge: Bm A Oh, it's like I’m looking down from the ceiling above Em G Never in the moment, never giving enough Bm A Let's go out and shout the words we never said Em G I got my mistakes on loop inside my head A Inside my head Chorus: D So why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? G Em Why am I like this? (Maybe I'm an old soul trapped in a young body) D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? (Maybe you don't really want me there) G Em Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? (Maybe I'm an old soul trapped in a young body) D Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I like this? Why am I? (Maybe you don't really want me there) G Em Why am I like this? Outro: D Maybe I'm an old soul trapped in a young body G Em Maybe you don’t really want me there at your birthday party D I'll be there in the corner, thinking right over G Em Every single word of the conversation we just had
