         F#m                   E
There is no love lost here between us
                  Bm                   D
Where are those friends who pulled no punches
              F#m            E
Shock from my hip with one another
           Bm                              D
We got so far from them, we're miles from way back when
        F#m                     E
I'm so nervous saying this out loud
        Bm                           D
As the words roll off my tongue and out my mouth

Chorus:
E             A                   D         F#m
I can see a change, I can see a change in you
                                D
I see it coursing through your veins
              A                 D         F#m
And it is a shame, oh it is a shame on you
                         D
I barely recognize your face

    A                      D
And I don't like what I'm seeing lately
F#m                   D
I don't like who I'm seeing lately, ooh oh

So many seasons fell beneath us
Too many voices on our shoulders
I miss us dancing through the same noise
But here we are my friend
We're miles from way back when

I never knew that I could be so down
I never knew that I could be so down until I told you

Chorus:
I can see a change
I can see a change in you
I see it coursing through your veins
And it is a shame
Oh it is a shame on you
I barely recognize your face

And I don't like what I'm seeing lately
Oh I don't like who I'm seeing lately

           E
Maybe I'm living in the past
       Bm                   D          F#m
Who am I to judge? I'm the worst of all
                 E
Some things are better left unsaid
       Bm                 D
But I miss the person I knew before

Chorus:
And I can see a change
I can see a change in you
I see it coursing through your veins
And it is a shame
Oh it is a shame on you
I barely recognize your face

And I don't like what I'm seeing lately
Oh I don't like who I'm seeing lately

I don't know who I'm seeing lately
Oh I don't know who I'm seeing lately
