  			A                          D                      A 
There were too many people ridin' on the daylight line 
A                                                A 
I delivered to the club proceeded on a bottle of wine 
E                                     D 
Watching all the coastline roll, like anywhere it really could go 
  Bm                                                    A 
I never thought I'd strike a rhythm that would leave you cold 
A                        D                         A 
I'd be wrong in the city but really that is not my place 
A                                    
I could go down in pity or leave and take a look at my face 
E                                     D 
Watching all the coastline roll, like anywhere it really could go 
Bm                                                       A 
I never thought I'd strike a rhythm that would leave you cold 
F#m                       
Sleepless nights without you 
  D 
I don't want to live without you 
             A 
But baby you know, oh whoa 
E 
We've got something between us 
                                                 A 
We better take it high or let it go, oh whoa

I have sleepless nights without you 
 
I don't want to live without you

But baby you know, oh whoa

We got something between us 
               
We better take it high or let it go, oh whoa 
A                          D                        A 
So there's too many people crowded on the daylight line 
A 
I  delivered to the club proceeded on a bottle of wine 
E                                     D 
Watching all the coastline roll, like anywhere it really could go

I never thought I'd strike a rhythm that would leave you cold

Watching all the coastline roll, like anywhere it really could go
