[C]The great protector, is that what I’m supposed to [Em]be?
What if [F]all this counts for nothing, everything…I…thought I’d [Am]be?
What…if [G]by the time I realize, it’s…too [G]far behind to [G]see?
[C]Seventy-mil projector, I can show you [Em]everything, yeah
And we’re [F]on our way to glory, where the show won’t ever [Am]end
And the [G]encore lasts forever, and it’s [G]time we’re due to [G]spend


[F] [Fm]
[C]Spending the years together, growing older every [Em]day (Every day)
I feel at [F]home when I’m around you, and I’ll gladly say [Am]again
I hope the [G]encore lasts forever, now there’s [G]time for us to [G]spend [F]
[Fm]And it’s sublime with you, my friend, [C]this right here still feels like a honeymoon
When you say my [Em]name, nothing’s changed, I’m still a boy inside my [F]thoughts
Am I meant to [Am]understand my [G]faults?


I don’t think [C]so , I don’t think I’m meant to understand [Em]myself
[E]Maybe you [F]do , and that’s good for you, [Am]maybe in [G]time
Maybe one [G]day, [G]I’ll do the [C]same, ooo OOO [Em]ooo
I’ll do the [G]same I’ll do the [G]same
[G]I’ll do the [F]same… [Em] [Dm] [D] [Gm] [F#] [F]


I’ll do the [F]same as you, I’ll try and [Em]hold it up
Soon I [Dm]hope, or as soon as [D]I’m old enough [Gm] [Gb] [F]


[Bb] [D] [Gm] [G] [Cm](Old enough to [B][Bb]understand)
[Bb] [D] [Gm] [G] [Cm] [B] [Bb](Old enough to [Bb] [D]understand) [Gm] [G]
[Cm] [B] [Bb] [Bb] [D] [Gm] [G] [Cm] [B] [Bb] [Cm] [B] [Bb] [Cm] [B]


[Bb]Stay forever, you know more than [Dm]anyone [Fm](Yeah, whoa)
And it’s [Cm]you that knows my darkness, and you know my bedroom needs
You could [Bb]blast me and my secrets, because there’s probably just no [Bb]need
