C#
Always the last to
fall asleep Always
with a dream in mind
F#
Carried the weight
but honestly I still
got left behind
C#
You think it's easier
to find What's wrong
than to figure it out
F#
Tonight I'm gonna
make you feel alive
And that's what
it's all about

        C#
Because lately we've
been all about our privacy
    F#
But we're not as alone as
we would like to be So
C#
take me to a place where
it's just you and me
A#m                     G#
And you won't wanna go home

Chorus:
F# C#     G#
Oh no I'm mixing
      C#/F
up my words again
F#   C#         G#
Who knows when I'll
      C#/F
make a move but
    F#
She comes and she
C#           G#
goes and she does
what she's told
C#/F       F#   C# G#
It's bittersweet
but it's enough for
  C# F#
me     It's enough for
me it's enough for me

Always the first to make amends
Try to find that perfect score
The city's not the best place for me
But I keep coming back for more
You think it's easier to let
all the madness pull you in
Tonight there's a fire inside you
(So let the flames begin)

Because lately we've been all about our privacy
But we're not as alone as we would like to be
So take me to a place where it's just you and me
And you won't wanna go home

Chorus:
Oh no, I'm mixing up my words again
Who knows when I'll make a move but
She comes and she goes and she does what she's told
It's bittersweet, but it's enough for me

So just know that you're
C#                G#
heaven sent not irrelevant
                 D#m C#/F F#
We're one in the same
    G#
And even when I'm
 C#
across the Atlantic
    G#/C
I'm right where
you're standing
   D#m   C#/F F#
So don't look down

Chorus:
Oh no, I'm mixing up my words again
Who knows when I'll make, when I'll make a move but
Oh no, I'm mixing up my words again
Who knows when I'll make a move but
She comes and she goes and she does what she's told
It's bittersweet, but it's enough for me
Yeah (It's enough for me, it's enough for me)
She comes and she goes and she does what she's told
It's bittersweet
