Bite down on your lip
Take another sip (Don't panic)

Stop checking your phone
Looking for the answers (Don't panic)

Mind running obsessed
Feeling paralyzed (Don't panic)

Let me watch you undress
Fall into the night

Yeah, we change and we change and we feel so lost

Don't panic

Been shattered before
Everything breaks
I can't really be sure
Of our mistakes
Come under my love
Like an umbrella
Going to make you feel good
Yeah, better than ever

Yeah, we change and we change and we feel so lost
And we don't know who we are
Yeah, we break and we break and we just can't stop
So we just keep breaking hearts

Chorus:
Why you wanna ruin a good thing?
Can we take it back to the start?
When love's not playing out like the movies
It doesn't mean it's falling apart
Don't panic
Don't panic

F#
I got big dreams baby
       A#m
I got big dreams baby
D#m          B
So don't you overcomplicate it

I got big dreams baby
I got big dreams baby
So don't you, don't you over complicate it

Chorus:
Why you wanna ruin a good thing?
Can we take it back to the start?
When love's not playing out like the movies
It doesn't mean it's falling apart
Don't panic
Don't panic
Don't panic
Don't panic
