Intro: G       Am      C 

verse 1 
        G 
It was right 
                Em 
Even though it felt wrong 
                        C 
Nothin' ever stopped you 
                        D       G 
From showin' your progression suddenly 

Bridge 

        G 
Broken lies 
                Em 
Drivin' backwards 
                C 
Makin' all the wrong turns 
                D 
Sayin' all the wrong words 
        G 
Dodgin' angels 

Pre-Chorus 

G               Em 
Oh, let's not be alone

Let's not be alone 
        G 
Let's be one

Oh, let's not be alone 
                C                       D 
Empty thoughts fill the room 
                   G 
Breathe for me and I'll breathe for you

Let's be selfish, selfish, baby 
C 
Tonight

verse 2 
G 
I just hit the liquor side of France 
Currency exchange, lookin' fancy 
Em 
If that money dirty, make it dance 
25 karats cost a mansion 
C 
Gold rose petals, bottle standin’ 
D 
Came from the concrete, takin' chances 
G 
Pop gold Ace like a Xanny 
G 
I just need the blessin' from your family 
G 
Broken lies, ain't no love without us 
Em 
It will die, roses turn into dust 
C                               G 
Every night, we gettin' more popular 
                                Am 
Wrong is right, when it comes to us 

 
G               Em 
Oh, let's not be alone 
             C          D 
Let's not be alone 
G               D       Am 
Tonight, let's be selfish 
Em              C 
Selfish, tonight 
        D       Am 
Let's be selfish, selfish, baby 
Em      C       G 
Tonight
