 Gm   Dm            C       Gm
Your eyes, crashing into my eyes
      A#           Dm         C
Was I accidentally falling in love?
 Gm   Dm            C               Gm
Your words, didn't mean to heal the hurt
      A#             Dm         C
Were coincidentally more than enough

A#
All these days I never thought
     C                                  Dm C
That I would need someone so much, who knew?
    A#
But I don't think I ever planned
C                                   Dm C
For this helpless circumstance with you

Chorus:
Dm           C            F
You're scared, I'm nervous
             A#                      Dm
But I guess that we did it on purpose
       C           F  A#
On purpose, on purpose
        Dm            C                  F
Baby I know it's weird, but it's worth it
              A#                      Dm
'Cuz I guess that we did it on purpose
       C           F A#
On purpose, on purpose
Dm  C    F  A#  Dm  C   F
Hey oh, hey oh, hey oh, hey
             A#
But I guess that we did it on purpose
Dm  C    F  A#  Dm  C   F
Hey oh, hey oh, hey oh, hey
             A#
But I guess that we did it on purpose

My dreams running into your dreams
It's as if we wished on the same star
And my time changing all of your time
It's a butterfly effect on my heart

All these days, I never thought
That I would need someone so much
Who knew? Who knew?
But I don't think I ever planned
For this helpless circumstance with you
Oh, whoa

Chorus

Dm       C         Gm       A#
Lost in darkness, you're my focus
Dm       C      Gm             A#
Love me hopeless (but I guess that
we did it on purpose)
Dm       C         Gm       A#
Lost in darkness, you're my focus
Dm       C
Love me hopeless

Chorus:
You're scared, I'm nervous
But I guess that we did it on purpose
On purpose, on purpose
Baby, I know it's weird, but it's worth it
'Cause I guess that we did it on purpose
On purpose, on purpose

Lost in darkness
You're my focus
Love me hopeless
But I guess that we did it on purpose
Lost in darkness
You're my focus
Love me hopeless
But I guess that we did it on purpose
