Anberlin - Retrace
Intro:
C#m B E/G# A x2
Verse 1:
C#m B E/G# A
Oh how I've tried to get you out of my head
C#m B E/G# A
And I lied with broken words I said
C#m B E/G# A
Never thought I'd walk on this street again
C#m B E/G# A
Standing where it all began
Pre-Chorus:
A
Tried to forget when I left this town
B
Well it takes me right back when I come back around
Chorus:
E
Retrace the steps we took on that lost summer night
B
I'm back there by your side
C#m
Retrace the steps we took when we met
A E
Worlds away counting backwards while the stars are falling
Verse 2:
C#m B E/G# A
Oh now I find every subtle thing screams your name
C#m B E/G# A
It reminds me of places and times we shared
C#m B E/G# A
Couldn't live locked in these memories
C#m B E/G# A
Now I'm chained to my thoughts again

A
And I tried to forget when I left this town

But I'll take you right back if you come back around
Chorus:
E
Retrace the steps we took on that lost summer night

I'm back there by your side
C#m
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away
A E
Counting backwards while the stars are falling
Bridge: (Part 1)
C#m A
I need some shelter I need some safety
B
Photographs they haunt me lately
C#m A
Chasing shadows as the evening takes me
B
I'm still searching but the picture's fading
Interlude:
C#m A B x2
Chorus:
E
Retrace the steps we took on that lost summer night
B
I'm back there by your side
C#m
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away
A
Counting backwards, still counting backwards
Bridge: (Part 2)
E
And nowhere else has ever felt like home
B
And I can't fall asleep when I'm lying here alone
C#m
I replay your voice, it's like you're here
A
You move the earth but now the sky is falling
Chorus:
E
Retrace the steps we took on that lost summer night
B
In my mind I'm back by your side
C#m
Retrace the steps we took when we met worlds away
A E
Counting backwards while the stars are falling
