D#                          Cm7
I took your number out my phone but it
             A#
didn't even matter
                     G#
'Cause I know it by heart, yeah
D#                  Cm7                A#
We can't even say, "No", let alone let go
                             G#
'Cause we'd end up where we are

    D#               Cm7
And I know I said I wouldn't
     A#                G#
And you know said you wouldn't too
    D#              Cm7          A#      G#
So how'd we end up here, in the same room?

Chorus:
     D#       Cm7
It's irresponsible
   A#                   G#
To be this close after midnight
D#        Cm7
Irresponsible
      A#                   G#
To remind myself what your lips taste like
       D#                         Cm7
'Cause I'm still gettin' over the last time,
                 A#
we said it's the last time
           G#
But I still, I still
 D#              Cm7
Pick up when you call
A#               G#       D# Cm7 A# G#
Even though it's irresponsible

I wish I had a good excuse but no matter what I do
I can't even think of one
Yeah, I know history repeats,
I'll be right back in your sheets
When it's all said and done
It's against our better judgement, I know
Even though we both want it, it's so, it's so

Chorus:
Irresponsible
To be this close after midnight
Irresponsible
To remind myself what your lips taste like
'Cause I'm still gettin'
over the last time, we said it's the last time
But I still, I still
Pick up when you call
Even though it's irresponsible

    D#                Cm7
And I know I said I shouldn't
     A#                 G#
And you know said you shouldn't too
    D#              Cm7          A#      G#
So how'd we end up here, in the same room?

Chorus:
Irresponsible
To be this close after midnight (After midnight)
Irresponsible
To remind myself what your
lips taste like (What your lips taste like)
'Cause I'm still gettin'
over the last time, we said it's the last time
But I still, I still
Pick up when you call
Even though it's irresponsible

I still pick up when you call
Even though it's irresponsible
I still pick up when you call, yeah
Even though it's irresponsible
