[Intro 1]
[D][G][A][G]
[A][D][G][A][Em][F#m]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]You're
living in a place you [F#m]left behind
[Bm]Going round in circles [F#m]all the time
[G]Can see the way your head
it's [A]like [D]you're bli[A]nd
So [Em]open your [F#m]eyes and
[Bm]Time realign just [F#m]what you got
With [Bm]what you nearly had
and [F#m]what you want
[G]You fall asleep and then
the mo[A]ment's gone
So [Em]open your [F#m]eyes and

[Verse 2]
[G]Yeah, its hard to undo [F#m]time
Hard to separate my [Em]past
from my rhyme
Cause how could you separate
milk from lime

[Verse 3]
Waste my time
[G]Looking [A]back
You always seem to be [G]looking
back (looking back)
[A]Feels lik[D]e your mind's
always [G]somewhere else
[A]You're always looking
[Em]over [F#m]your shoulder

[Verse 4]
[Bm]Think about the places you
[F#m]could never be
[Bm]Beauty in the faces that you [F#m]never see
[G]As you lie this sleepy
[A]How the mo[D]ment [A]flies
So [Em]open your [F#m]eyes and:

[Verse 5]
[G]Yeah, they say life makes
sense back[F#m]wards

[Verse 6]
But you've got to live it forward
[Em]Don't waste your time, no
Don't waste your time just [G]looking back
[A]You always seem to be loo[G]king back
[A]Feels lik[D]e your mind's
always [G]somewhere else
[A]You're always looking ove[Em]r your
[F#m]shoulder (over your [G]shoulder)
Looking back
[A]You always seem to be loo[G]king
back (looking back)
[A]Feels lik[D]e your mind's always
[G]somewhere else (somewhere else)
[A]You're always looking
[Em]over [F#m]your shoulder

[Verse 7]
Am [Bm]I the only one trying to
fight off an army
[F#m]Of memories dressed up
all trying to harm me
[Bm]I feel cocky,
running up the steps like Rocky
[F#m]Un til the past comes
flashing like paparazzi
[G]Nothing's new so why open my folder
[A]My favorite view is over
my shoulder
[Em]Everything backwards, [F#m]is my plight
[G]Its landing first when in my flight
[F#m]Even my tears run up my cheeks
Back [Em]in my eye

[Verse 8]
Link I die
[G]Don't waste your time [F#m]just l[G]ooking back
[A]You always seem to be
[G]looking back (looking back)
[A]Feels like your min[D]d's always
[G]somewhere else (somewhere else)
[A]You're always looking ove[Em]r your sho[F#m]ulder
[G](ov[A]er your shoulder)
You always seem to be [G]looking
back (looking back)
[A]Feels lik[D]e your mind's always
[G]somewhere else (somewhere else)
[A]You're always looking ove[Em]r your sho[F#m]ulder
[G](ov[A]er your shoulder)

[Verse 9]
You're always [G]looking back
[A]Over, [D]and over, and o[G]ver[A]
You're always looking [G]back
