Verse: 
 F# 
Holding your hands 
      B            F# 
And spinning you around 
 D#m 
Pulling the seem 
        F# 
Out of focus 

  F# 
Flickering lights 
  B         F# 
Fading to stripes 
    D#m       F#      C# 
My heart is about to blow 


Pre-Chorus 
     A#m 
Well hey, 
 F#       F#        A#m  C# 
Remember what you'd saaaaay 


Verse: 
   F# 
I know you too well 
       B      F# 
I can easily tell 
 D#m              F#       C# 
There's something on your mind 

    F# 
And I recognize 
     B            F# 
The look in your eyes 
   D#m      F#     C# 
I think I already know 


Pre-Chorus 
     A#m 
Well hey, 
 B        F#        A#m  C# 
Remember what you'd saaaaay
