 C#      G#       A#m
Take me where the sun
        F#
Dives into the ocean
  C#  G#      A#m
Where we can spend
     F#
The night watching
      C#         G#     A#m
The world spin chasing tails
      F#              C#
Made out of shining stars
      G#   A#m
We'll be alone
  F#              C# G#
Together one more (night)
    F#           C# G#
Together we're alright
      F#
Cause we know

Chorus:
       A#m    F# C# G#
If we make it or not
                A#m  F#   C#  G#
They'll say we tried and fought
              A#m      F#         C#
And we will stand up against the world
       G#         A#m       F#
We'll never look away from what they say
    C#                G#                 C#
We beat the odds and made it through the day

Remember our first kiss
We made under
The night we felt alive
We knew that it was right
That kiss will live
Just like it's breathing
And when everything seems lost
Just know you'll find me there (yeah)
You'll find me there
Cause we know

Chorus

              A#m     G#  F#
I think we'll make it out ok
 C#  G#         A#m        F#
They all say we tried and fought
              C#        G#
Through the crowds and turns
              A#m     F#
We know they never stopped
              A#m      F#         C#
And we will stand up against the world
       G#         A#m       F#
We'll never look away from what they say
 C#            G#
We beat the odds

Chorus
