[Verse 1]

A                         D
I'ma gonna build myself a time machine
   A                        D
On particle physics and the power steam
   A                      D            E   D
It runs on diesel oil and Donnie Darko daydreams
  A                            D
I packed a pair of socks and a hunting riffle
A                            D
Change of underwear and some snacks to trifle
A                        D               E  D
Scared of going back you know how I'm forgetful


[Chorus]

F#m   Bm   E      F#m                D      A       F#m
To go back and to see the way things really used to be
        Bm  E    D
Not the way we remember them at all

[Verse 2]

A                      D
Packed up, sat in my DeLorean
     A                       D
Like some kind of amateur historian
A                                  D              E  D
I'll visit the Renaissance and the Romans, the Victorians
A                            D
Drinking in Deadwood in the 1880s
A                                    D
Rock and roll and drive thrus in the 1950s
A                                  D                    E D
Trying not to change things so the plot lines don't get shitty


[Chorus 2]

F#m   Bm   E      F#m                D      A       F#m
To go back and to see the way things really used to be
        Bm  E    D
Not the way we remember them
F#m   Bm   E      F#m                D      A       F#m
To go back and to see the way things really used to be
        Bm  E    D               F G A
Not the way we remember them at all


[Bridge]

F      G       A         F       G     C    G/B
So you can't recall, you tell it to me false
        Bb                 F/A
What if everything were to change completely
       D
If you just saw a replay of the crucial scenes
         E
From the passenger window of a time machine

[Verse 3]

   A                            D
In truth the real reason that I built this here machine
A                         D
Was just to travel back a couple of years
   A                   D                   E   D
To when we first met before the fights and tears
     A                         D
To a time when you and I first got together
A                            D
Simple days and simple words like "forever"
A                             D             E  D
Dripped off our tongues, come on you must remember


[Chorus 3]

F#m   Bm   E      F#m                D      A       F#m
To go back and to see the way things really used to be
            Bm   E     D
Before life quietly dismembers
F#m     Bm   E       F#m          D   A        F#m
All the best things about you and I before the doubts
            Bm  E      D
Drowned out all of the mirth and mercy
                                A  D
Come on baby please you must remember
          A D A D E
Please remember
D             A D A D A D E C A
Baby please remember
