Intro: C G C G 

Verse 1 
C                          G 
There's an ocean inside my head 
C                     G 
Waves that don't ever rest 
C                         G 
This kind of beauty ain't ordinary 
    C                       G 
You look, but do you really see? 


Pre-Chorus 
          Am        C       G 
Won't you take your time on me? 
           Am         C       G 
'Cause we got nowhere else to be 


         C 
We'll go dancing in the kitchen 
            D 
You fall in my arms 
               Em 
Baby won't you let your phone keep ringing 
        G 
Are you thinking what I'm thinking? 
          C         D       G 
Won't you take your time on me? 
           Em 
Oh, oh, oh 
C  G 
On me 
       Em C 
Oh, oh 


Verse 2 
C                      G 
I'll let you figure me out 
C                  G 
Tear all my fences down 
G 
We've been so tired 
G 
Asleep on our feet 
G 
Chasing things we'll never keep 


Pre-Chorus 
          Am        C       G 
Won't you take your time on me? 
          Am          C       G 
'Cause we got nowhere else to be 


         C 
We'll go dancing in the kitchen 
            D 
You fall in my arms 
               Em 
Baby won't you let your phone keep ringing 
        G 
Are you thinking what I'm thinking? 
C 
We could walk away with nothing 
         D 
We could go too far 
             Em 
I'll admit I never saw you coming 
      G 
Now I see your colors running 
          Am        C       G 
Won't you take your time on me? 
          Am        C       G 
Won't you take your time on me? 
           Em 
Oh, oh, oh 
C  G 
On me 
       Em C 
Oh, oh
