    Em       G       Bm       A
And so, you built a life on trust
 Em         G    Bm              A
Though it starts, with love and lust
     Em        G       Bm       A
And when your house, begins to rust
Em        G   Bm          A
Oh, it's just, metal and dust

Em                  G   Bm A
We argue, we don't fight
Em                  G   Bm A
We argue, we don't fight

And all foundation that we made
Built to last, they disintegrate
And when your house begins to rust
Oh, it's just metal and dust

Chorus:
Em                  G
We argue, we don't fight
                                Bm
Stay awake in the middle of the night
                                 A
Stay awake in the middle of the night
Em                  G
We argue, we don't fight
                                Bm
Stay awake in the middle of the night
                                 A
Stay awake in the middle of the night
Em            G Bm A
We don't argue

We argue, we don't fight
Stay awake to the middle of the night
Stay awake to the middle of the night

We don't argue

We argue, we don't fight
Stay awake to the middle of the night
Stay awake to the middle of the night

We don't argue
We don't argue (And never)
We don't argue
