This is the intro and also played during the verse, but here are also the chords: 

D           Bm  
A floodlit tennis court 
   D        Bm  
We play nocturnal sport 
    D        Bm       
And wear our skew whiff smiles 
    D        Bm 
We wear our skew whiff smiles 

x2 

D            Bm        
A designated driver vehicle 
  A  
A laugh 
  G 
Our voices quick and shrill 

         D                    A 
I tell my secrets to a perfect stranger 
        G 
It was midnight on the hill 

          D 
A sudden silence 
          A 
Too much information 
        G 
We were struggling with our will 

            D 
What happened next?  
               A 
I would like to know 
G 
Funny how the moments come and go 

 D             Bm 
The forest opens up 
               D 
We fill another cup 
              Bm 
And feel our senses slide 
 D              Bm 
The bubbles of your nose   
                   A 
Spill on your summer clothes 
      G 
You grab a guiding hand 

 D              Bm 
The bubbles of your nose 
                  A 
Spill on your summer clothes 
     G 
You grab a guiding hand 

D            Bm 
What happened next?  
             A 
I would like to know 
G 
Funny how the moments come and go 
D            A 
What happened next? 
               G  
I would like to know 

D 
The smell of sunscreen 
Smeared on the front seat 
You and your bare feet 
Tapping on the glove box 

It was an empty dream 
This is how the summer ends 

                      G 
A bead of sweat drops down 
                     A 
You're misting up my mind 
                  G 
It's getting so confined 
                      A 
You're misting up my mind 
                 G 
It's getting so confined 
you're turning the screw 
                     A 
You're misting up my mind 
What will I do? 
                 G 
It's getting so confined 
you're turning the screw 
                    A 
You're misting up my mind 
What did I do? 

All night long 

You know I'm not strong 

What happened next? 
I would like to know 
Funny how the moments come and go
