[Intro]
Bm D G

[Verse 1]
Bm
I loved how I slept
           D              G
When I was younger and content

With all the simple things
Bm
I had so much more then
      D            G
I had peace, I had you to tell me
                                     Bm
That it would all turn out just fine

[Refrain]
             D
So now I ask you
G
Did we all turn out just fine?

[Instrumental]
Bm D G

[Chorus 1]
          Bm           Fm
Was it in me not to see you
       G                 Bm
Not to close my eyes and turn?
       Fm
Not to hear your voice
Continues after the ad
            G
When you're screaming out my name
Bm                   Fm
How could I miss it now?
G
Screaming out my name

[Instrumental]
Bm A Bm

[Verse 2]
Bm
I loved how we spoke
              D               G
With our eyes closed and our hands
                      Bm
Raised to the ceiling high
              D                 G
And our faith like fire burning inside
                                   Bm
Now we're empty and we don't know why (why)

[Refrain]
             D
That's why I ask you
G                        Bm
Did we all turn out just fine?

[Instrumental]
F#m G

[Chorus 2]
G
I want to love something more than I love myself
Bm                  A
I want to kill this need to be somebody else
G
I want to see my friends doing okay
Bm                   A
Not feeling sad and strange
Bm            D            G
But nowadays, why is it so hard?

[Instrumental]
Bm D G
Bm D G
Bm F#m G

[Verse 3]
Bm     F#m          G
Cut my chest wide open
Bm     F#m          G
To see that I'm still longing
Bm     F#m          G
I can't find what is missing
Bm                      D
My peace is gone and it won't come back
F#m
Maybe that's why I'm always looking to the past

[Chorus 2]
G
I want to love something more than I love myself
Bm                  A
I want to kill this need to be somebody else
G
I want to see my friends doing okay
Bm                   A
Not feeling sad and strange
Bm            D            G
But nowadays, why is it so hard?

(To see you, to feel you here)
Bm        D            G
Nowadays, why is it so hard?
