Verse 1

Em              Am 
been up all night
D              G 
staring at you
Em             Am                  D 
wondering what's on your mind
Em                 Am 
i've been this way
D                   G 
with so many before
             Em                      Am       D 
but this feels like the first time

C                    G 
you want the sunrise 
Em                 D 
to go back to bed
C             G             D 
i want to make you laugh

Chorus:

G       D         G           C 
mess up my bed with me
G                D 
kick off the covers
C               G  D 
i'm waiting
G       D                     G 
every word you say i think
              C 
i should write down
G         D 
i don't want to forget
          C          G  D 
come daylight

Verse 2:

Em          Am 
happy to lay here
       D                 G 
just happy to be here
      Em              Am      D   
i'm happy to know you
Em           Am 
play me a song
D                  G 
your newest one
Em                       Am              D 
please leave your taste on my tongue

C      G          Em      D 
paperweight on my back
C             G       D  
cover me like a blanket

Chorus:

G       D         G           C 
mess up my bed with me
G                D 
kick off the covers
C               G  D 
i'm waiting
G       D                     G 
every word you say i think
              C 
i should write down
G         D 
i don't want to forget
          C          G  D 
come daylight

           Am 
and no need to worry
G                  C 
that's wasting time
           Am 
and no need to wonder
G                            C 
what's been on my mind
G         D 
it's you
G   
it's you
      C 
it's you

G  D  C  G  D 

G       D                     G 
every word you say i think
              C 
i should write down
G         D 
i don't want to forget
          C          G  D 
come daylight
G             D 
and i give up
  G         C     G 
i let you win
       D                          C            G  D 
you win 'cause i'm not counting
Em               Am 
you made it back
D           G 
to sleep again
Em                Am                D 
wonder what you're dreaming
