G
Fireworks in Manhattan
We're dancing and laughing
                    D
Like this isn’t the end
Em                  C
Wear me over your shoulder
                     G
As the evening gets colder
                       D
Like we meant what we said

Chorus:
               C
We both know this isn't right
G                            D
Love isn't supposed to keep you up at night
              C
We both know good things can end
Em                          D
I just don’t wanna have to let you go yet

Don't wanna crash
My body is shaking
Did you think we could make it
Something better than this?
Is your mind made up?
Tell me, does it falter?
Can this get any harder
Than it already is?

Chorus:
We both know this isn't right
Love isn't supposed to keep you up at night
We both know good things can end
I just don't want to have to let you go yet

                               C   Em
These hearts weren't made for bending
                       D
So, hold me while it's ending
                C     Em
It's easier pretending
                       D
So, hold me while it’s ending
                               C       G
These hearts weren’t made for bending (Oh)
                       D
So, hold me while it's ending (So, hold me, hold me)
                C     Em
It’s easier pretending
                       D
So, hold me while it's ending (Woah, yeah)

Chorus:
We both know this isn't right
Love isn't supposed to keep you up at night
We both know good things can end
I just don’t want to have to let you go yet
