Intro: F Am G
verse 1
F
You’re getting better, better
Am
At guessing letters, letters
G
I'm writing with my fingers now
F
And we’re just watching, watching
Am
Dust on the curtain, curtain
G
Illuminated, falling down
Pre-Chorus
F Am
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
G Dm
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
F Am
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
G
I could go on and on
N.C.
But time is not on our side
F
Waiting for the light
Am
Night after night
Night after night
G
And I know
I will slip away
Dm
Day after day
Day after day
F
'til we're old
All I wanna do
Am
Is lie next to you
G
Lie next to you and stay close
Dm
But time is not on our side
F
Looking in your eyes
Am
Night after night
Night after night
G
And I see
Where I gotta stay
Dm
Day after day
Day after day
F
To find peace
All I gotta do
Am
Is lie next to you
G
Lie next to you and just breathe
But time is not on our side
verse 2
F
We never wake up, wake up
Am
We only stay up, stay up
G
And let the seconds chase us down
F
But we're learning, learning
Am
Nothing's certain, certain
G
So can we stop the clock for now?
Pre-Chorus
F Am
Now we've got the doors closed and you're telling me
G Dm
You are mine and you’ll go anywhere with me
F Am
Tell me, can we stay right here and never leave?
G
I could go on and on
N.C.
But time is not on our side
Chorus
F
Waiting for the light
Am
Night after night
Night after night
G
And I know
I will slip away
Dm
Day after day
Day after day
F
'til we're old
All I wanna do
Am
Is lie next to you
G
Lie next to you and stay close
Dm
But time is not on our side
F
Looking in your eyes
Am
Night after night
Night after night
G
And I see
Where I gotta stay
Dm
Day after day
Day after day

To find peace
All I gotta do

Is lie next to you

Lie next to you and just breathe
