Intro: D---A---D---A---
Verse 1:
D
It was a drunken midnight on the street
A
Bright lit dusted with the neon lights
D
We ducked behind the corner store
A
Smoke your smokes wanna keep a watchful eye
Refrain 1:
D
Right here
A
Right now
Verse 2:
D
I hope before the night is through
A
One fumbled touch will finally hit the spot
D
You've got everything going for you
A
So I'll go for you with everything I got
Refrain 2:
D
Right here
A
The best days of our lives
Chorus:
F#m
Is this coincidence or a sign?
E
Is there anything I missed?
F#m
Is there anything I missed?
E
Tell me if I'm wrong
But what will we change a thing?
(Intro)
Verse 3:
D
When the morning light fights through the cracks
A
Cascading across the bed and you are mine
D
When your parents start to wake for work
A
Between the sheets we keep a watchful eye
(Refrain 2)
(Chorus)
Bridge:
A
And when we met I was on my back
I swear we spent most afternoons
C#m
Somewhere in the act
E
We were part of something ours and ours alone
Anywhere was home
F#m
We almost here again
(Repeat)
D
We're almost here again
A
We're almost here again
D
Right here
A
Right now
(Repeat intro 2x)
