Used To Be


This is one of my favorite Beach House songs. It took me quite a while to get used to the album version because it sounds more optimistic than the single version, and I like sad songs better. But both versions are awesome, and the chords don't differ from each other that much. This is a very simple song, but it wasn't easy figuring out those hidden chords in the third and fourth verses. Enjoy some happy sadness... ***************************************************************************** USED TO BE (single version) by Beach House Intro D A You are coming home Are you still alone G D Are you not the same as you used to be? A As the sun grows high And you served your time G D Does each day just feel like another lie? Em Now you know Is it just for show Bm F#m Just a foolish game that you hide behind Em Don't forget the nights G When it all felt right Bm Em Are you not the same as you used to be D Used to be? A In a endless night Did you feel the fright G D Of an age that was and could never be A So we hold it close When we feel the most G D Like a love that we could not leave behind Em We turn the wheel To which way we feel Bm F#m Till I'm lost and I can not find you there Em Don't forget the nights G when it all felt right Bm Em Are you not the same as you used to be? D Used to be G Even if I try so hard D Would we still be coming to an end A Even if we spoke the same words G Would we still be termed as friends? G Even if its simple from the start D We will give the pieces of our hearts A And when there is nothing left to pretend G We will know its coming to an end G We could wait until the summer D See what happeneds to each other A We could wait inside all summer G See what happeneds to each other D ***************************************************************************** USED TO BE (album version) by Beach House Intro D A You are coming home Are you still alone G D Are you not the same as you used to be?
