-VERSE-
                    E*(pm)  F#*(pm)
Man we used to be brothers
                   G*(pm)
Superheroes and warriors
 E*(pm)
Cowboys and indians
 F#*(pm)
Train drivers, everything
 G*(pm)
Rolling through the endless summers

                 E*(pm) F#*
But everything changes
                        G*(pm)
You got married, had children
       E*(pm)
And I don't have your number
     F#*(pm)
The one I can remember
         G*(pm)                            G*(pm).
Is that place you used to live with your parents


-CHORUS-
        CMaj7/G          G6/F#     Em/B
In the stillness of the moment it takes for
   G6/D     ED11/A
A polaroid picture to capture our faces forever
     CMaj7/G            G6/F#        Em/B
The world has turned a touch on its axis
         G6/D        D11/A
And the only thing certain is that everything changes

-VERSE-
                        E*(pm) F#*
Man, they closed the Astoria
                    G*(pm)
At the end of last summer
     E*(pm)
The place we earned our pedigree
 F#*(pm)
Scene of our victories
 G*(pm)
Sanctuary in the centre of London

                        E*(pm)  F#*
Now they're building a railway
                             G*(pm)
To track the vanquished to Versailles
     E*(pm)
The sing-a-longs go on
             F#*(pm)
But they're singing different songs
    G*(pm)                                G*(pm).
In rooms that we don't know on the other side of the city


-CHORUS-
        CMaj7/G          G6/F#     Em/B
In the stillness of the moment it takes for
   G6/D     D11/A
A polaroid picture to capture our faces forever
     CMaj7/G            G6/F#        Em/B
The world has turned a touch on its axis
         G6/D        D11/A
And the only thing certain is that everything changes


-BRIDGE-

So honey
        Am
I just need a little time
    Emadd9        Em       G6/E  Riff 1
To take a little time with it today
    Am                           Emadd9
To savour all our triumphs and tradgedies
  Em         G6/E   Riff 1
Before they slip away
                   D/G*(pm) D/G*
Before they slip away


    D/G*(pm)
Let go of the little distractions
       D*(pm)
Hold close to the ones that you love
           C*(pm)
Because we won't all be here this time next year
             E/B*(pm)              F#m/A*(pm)
So while you can take a picture of us


    D/G*(pm)
Let go of the little distractions
       D*(pm)
Hold close to the ones that you love
           C*(pm)
Because we won't all be here this time next year
             E/B*(pm)              F#m/A*(pm)
So while you can take a picture of us


                 G
Take a polaroid picture
                 Dsus/F#
Take a polaroid picture
                 Gsus4
Take a polaroid picture
                         Em7     D/F#
Please, take a polaroid picture

                 G
Take a polaroid picture
                         Dsus4/F#
Please, take a polaroid picture
                  Gsus4
Take a picture of us to show
                         Em7           D/F#
We've been watching to see where our time goes

           Riff 2          Riff 3      Riff 4
So in the stillness of the moment make sure
            Riff 5   Riff 6
You take a polaroid picture, and keep it with you forever
     Riff 2              Riff 3     Riff 4
To remind yourself that everything changes
     Riff 5        Riff 6                                                    A7~
