Verse 1:
Bbm
So I've been thinking lately
C#
That I should try to grow up
G#
Maybe start to show up on time
Bbm
But let's be real here baby
C#
It's not the way that we work
G#
So why waste the sunshine?
Bbm
I guess it's kinda funny
C#
We always throw away our money
G#
Right when we need it most
Bbm
But honestly I'm happy
C#
I don't wanna worry about
G#
How we got to be so broke
Refrain:
Bbm Fm F#
Don't want to say
goodnight let's live it up
Bbm Fm F#
Don't have to say
we're giving up if you
Chorus:
C#
Walk me home tonight I swear I could
G#
Fly beside you or under your starlight
Bbm Fm F#
Don't want to say
goodnight let's live it up
Bbm Fm F#
Don't have to wait
have it all if you
C#
Light me up tonight I swear I could
G#
Never burn out under your starlight
Post Chorus: Bbm Fm F# x2
Verse 2:
Bbm
So you've been thinking lately
C#
That you don't know what you want
G#
But you don't know what
you've got my dear
Bbm
And if it's dreams we're chasing
C#
You've got the world at your feet
G#
The skyline is so clear
Bbm
We're getting hung up on the
C#
things we should have known
G#
Never bothered us before
Bbm
We're trying to make ends
C#
meet but I'm starting to think
G#
That this is all I need and more
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
Breakdown:
F#
Under your starlight
G#
Under your starlight
Bbm C# Fm
Under your starlight
Bridge:
F#
Well our jeans are well
ripped with our pockets thin
G#
We don't have any change so
we'll just put our hands in
Bbm
You'll keep me warm tonight
C#
I don't need nice things to
help me sleep at night
F#
Well it's never felt better
to have nothing but you
G#
And no one understands me
but I'm telling the truth
Bbm
Coz we can live in our own
world as long as you love me
C# Bbm Fm F# x2
As long as you love me
(Repeat Refrain)
(Repeat Chorus)
Outro:
Bbm Fm F# Bbm Fm F#
Under your starlight hey
Bbm Fm F#
Don't want to say goodnight
let's live it up
Bbm Fm F#(hold)
I'm lost tonight
under your starlight
