Intro: Am  G  Dm  Em 

Am           C                 Dm      Em 
   Everybody says the world is ending 
Am       G              Dm            Em 
   But tonight's just beginning 
Am                   C                Dm        Em 
   While everyone is running out and spinning 

   G                 Dm 
   We keep slowing down 

     C          Am       Em 
   Stay right where you are 
                C          Am      Em 
   C'mon let me dance with you 
   C        Am            Em 
   Tell me where to start 
                 C        Am     Em 
   Let me put my hands on you 

Am               C              Dm       Em 
   Everything we need is in the quiet 
      Dm                    Am   G 
   So let's hide out deep inside it 
Am             C           Dm           Em 
   And even if tomorrow doesn't hold on 
       Dm                          G 
   At least, at least, at least we have this one song, one song 

     C          Am       Em 
   Stay right where you are 
                C           Am     Em 
   C'mon let me dance with you 
   C        Am                 Em 
   Tell me where to start 
                 C         Am     Em 
   Let me put my hands on you 

Am         Em          Dm 
   Your eyes, your hands, your breath on my neck 
Am     Em       Dm 
   The way you say let's never forget 
Am      Em          Dm                    Dm 
   This way, this love is all that we get 

     C         Am          Em 
   Stay right where you are 
     C         Am          Em 
   Stay right where you are 
     
     C         Am          Em 
   Stay right where you are 
                C             Am  Em 
   C'mon let me dance with you 
         
     C         Am          Em 
   Stay right where you are
