D                         G      A 
Get closer girl, you know we can make it 
D                            G      A 
Its a lonely world, you know we can break it 
Em                                                A 
You're stuck, out of luck, baby do you need to forget it right 
Em                                                 A 
We got a doubt, let it out, even in the final bout we can fight 
             Em       A 
But it don't mean tonight 

D                     A 
We can take it to the heartland

We can take it to the heartland

Into the heartland
 
Verse 2 same chords: 
Every move we make is one step closer 
Look at what's at stake, baby here's my shoulder 
You're through turnin' blue thinkin' bout me and you, we can't lose 
Gotta play never say goin' 'way to 'nother day, you can choose 
Cause baby we're overdue 
 
Chorus twice
