[Intro]
F C G C x2
[Verse 1]
F C
Dressed up, you've got your hair done up
G C
For the first time in a couple weeks
F C
You're choked up from a real gut punch
G C
You've got some colour back in your cheeks
[Verse 2]
F C
You keep a picture on the wall of your family
G C
You keep a journal to reflect
F C
You keep a picture on the wall of your family
G
Your secret's close to your chest
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C
If only for a moment, tonight
G Am
You're not looking over your shoulder
Dm C
If only for a moment, tonight
G Am
I dipped you low and we both fell over
[Chorus]
Dm C
At karaoke we were trading each verse
G Am
You wore my jacket and I carried your purse
Dm C
For a moment, tonight
G
Only for a moment
Yeah, we could feel alright
F C
(We could we could we could feel alright)
G C
(We could we could we could feel alright)
[Verse 3]
F C
I freeze my heart skips a beat
G C
Every time I hear the phone ringing
F C
You pick up and speak soft in the next room
G C
I hold my breath I'm trying to listen in
[Verse 4]
F C
The doctor said this might run in the family
G C
So we'll be keeping an eye
F C
The doctor said this might run in the family
G
So stand by, we're standing by
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C
If only for a moment, tonight
G Am
You're not looking over your shoulder

If only for a moment, tonight

I dipped you low and we both fell over

[Bridge]
F
She fell asleep beside me
G
In the backseat of a cab
F
I leaned in to kiss her forehead
G C
She reached out to grab my hand
F C
We got back to our apartment
G C
Set the alarm for 7 am
Dm
'Cause we're driving back to her hometown
F C
Where the walls are caving in
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C
If only for a moment, tonight
G Am
You're not looking over your shoulder
Dm C
If only for a moment, tonight
G Am
I dipped you low and we both fell over
