F                                             C
Yearning, yearning for the past,
C                                    F                                       C                    
It’s like we’re always burning… through the hourglass,
Like we always do, Like we always do
F                                          C
Learning, learning as we go,

It’s like we’re always searching for the seeds we’ve sown,
Like we always do, Like we always do

F                                   G
Stuck in the rhythm, the same every day 
Am                             C                            G   Am
Looking at pictures I know I should put away 
F                          G
Building towers to break them back down 
Am                                                   C                   G  Am  F
We’re framing the moment The ties that keep us bound

C                            G
Days and nights, in the best of times 
Am                                              G 
We keep our memories like souvenirs
F                                   G
When we were kids, did you think that it would
Am                       C
All come back to this

F                        G

Stalling, just to make it last 
C                                    F
It’s like were always falling
F                        C
Falling for the past,
Like we always do, like we always do
F                                   G
Stuck in the rhythm, the same every day
