[Intro]
G
C D Bm Em
[Verse 1]
C D
Your ex-friend's sister
G
Met someone at a club and he kissed her
Turns out, it was that guy you hooked up with ages ago
C
Some wannabe Z-lister
D
And all the outfits were terrible
G
2003, unbearable
"Did you see the photos?"
No, I didn't, but thanks, though
[Pre-Chorus]
C D
I'm so in love that I might stop breathing
G
Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling
No, I didn't see the news
C
'Cause we were somewhere else
D
Stumbled down pretend alleyways
G
Cheap wine, make believe it's champagne
I was taken by the view
[Chorus]
C D
Like we were in Paris
G
Like we were somewhere else
C D
Like we were in Paris, oh
G
We were some - where else
[Verse 2]
C D
Privacy sign on the door
G
And on my page and on the whole world
Romance is not dead if you keep it just yours
C
Levitate above all the messes made
D
Sip quiet by my side in the shade
Bm
And not the kind that's thrown
Em
I mean, the kind under where a tree has grown
[Pre-Chorus]
C D
I'm so in love that I might stop breathing
G
Drew a map on your bedroom ceiling
No, I didn't see the news
C
'Cause we were somewhere else
D
Stumbled down pretend alleyways
G
Cheap wine, make believe it's champagne
I was taken by the view
[Chorus]
C D
Like we were in Paris
G
Like we were somewhere else
C D
Like we were in Paris, oh
G
We were some - where else
[Bridge]
C
I wanna brainwash you
D
Into loving me forever
G
I wanna transport you
To somewhere the culture's clever
C
Confess my truth
D G
In swooping, sloping, cursive letters
Let the only flashing lights be the tower at midnight
C D
In my mind
[Breakdown]
G
We drew a map on your bedroom ceiling
No, I didn't see the news
C
'Cause we were somewhere else
D G
In an alleyway, drinking champagne
[Chorus]
C D
'Cause we were in Paris
G
Yes, we were somewhere else
C D
My love, we were in Paris
G
Yes, we were some - where else
