Walking Backwards - Sam Tsui

[VERSE 1]
C
Watching the ground,
C9
I swear I've seen these streets before,
       C
I gotta turn it around
C9
Don't wanna be here anymore
     C
Gotta change the way I've been facing,
        C9                      E    Am
Spending all my time retracing old scars
                  F
So far from where I wanna be
Don't walk with me

[REFRAIN 1]
             Dm                        Am       G
Cause I take one step forward and two steps back
                 Dm
I'm headed the wrong way,
                        Am      G
The wrong way on the right track

[CHORUS 1]
C                          F   
Like I'm walking backwards
                                C      F
Like standing still would be faster
                   C                F
Cause I know disaster is after me 
              C      Am                             F
But I'll get the last word this chapter, you'll see
                      C       F
If I stop walking backwards

[VERSE 2]
C
Staring ahead
C9
I tell my feet to follow but they're
    C
Just reversing instead
C9
Wouldn't you think that I'd know by now
C
This is all too familiar
        C9
Who knew deja-vu could kill you
E  Am                   F
Oh no, here I go, it all repeats,
Don't follow me

[REFRAIN 2]
             Dm                        Am      G
Cause I take one step forward and two steps back
                 Dm
I'm headed the wrong way,
                        Am      G
The wrong way on the right track

[CHORUS 2]
C                          F   
Like I'm walking backwards
                                C      F
Like standing still would be faster
                   C                F
Cause I know disaster is after me 
              C      Am                             F
But I'll get the last word this chapter, you'll see
                      C       F
If I stop walking backwards

[BRIDGE]
Ab                                      Bb
So maybe I'll crash, and maybe I'll burn
                                  Ab
But maybe I'll turn this thing around
                                            Bb
If something can change, and lessons are learned
                            C  Gm  C
It isn't too late to make up ground
    Bb       C C C C
I'm making up ground

[CHORUS 3]
C     C   C  C               F   
Like I'm walking backwards
                                C      F
Like standing still would be faster
                   C                F
Cause I know disaster is after me
              C      Am                             F
But I'll get the last word this chapter, you'll see
                      C         F
If I stop walking backwards, hey
C     F
Oooooooh
                   C                F
Cause I know disaster is after me
              C      Am                             F
But I'll get the last word this chapter, you'll see
                      C       F
If I stop walking backwards
        C  
Hmmmmmm
