I remember when our voices used to sound the same

Now we just translate
Bb C
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
F-Am-Dm-Bb
Ooooh, oooh ooh oh
Bb
Born on your feet, running
C F
Forest fires underneath your bed
Am-Dm-Bb
C
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back

Staring out, I always skip the words
Cause all the pictures are so bright and loud
Better off than now

super fun
At the movies, drunk and young
Double knots that came undone
But the big bad years are gone
Yeah, the big bad years are done
F-Am-Dm-Bb
And gone away
I remember when our voices used to sound the exact same
Bb C
Cause I'm still amazed you made it out alive
After what you did
Bb
Born on your feet
C
Running, forest fires underneath your bed
C
But it's good to be back
Good to be back
Good to be back
F-Am-Dm-Bb
