D#
You're king of the castle
Whenever you're here, you know it feels right
Gm
Don't need to worry
A#
Don't need to move, I've got the spotlight

D#
I want you to
Do you want to?
I want you to stay tonight
Gm
I want you to say
A#
I want you to

Chorus:
                    D#
He never wants to strip down to his feelings
He never wants to kiss and close his eyes
                   Gm       A#
He never wants to cry-y-y, cry-y-y
                 D#
I never really know when he'll be leaving
And even with hello I hear goodbye
                   Gm       A#
He always makes me cry-y-y, cry-y-y

Wake up without you
Flooding my room, I see your headlights
And you got your reasons
You've got a way that makes it alright

I want you to
Do you want to?
I want you to stay tonight
I want you to say "I want you too"

Chorus
D#
Wake up without you
Wake up without you
Wake up without you
I wake up without you, boy
 Gm       A#
Cry-y-y, cry-y-y
D#
Wake up without you
Wake up without you
Wake up without you
I wake up without you, boy
 Gm       A#
Cry-y-y, cry-y-y
D#
You're king of the castle
Whenever you're here, you know it feels right
Gm                 A#
Don't need to worry

Chorus
