[Em]I don’t wanna buy [C]what they’re selling these days
Saying [G]feeling and falling is [D]all a mistake, no, [Em]no [C] [G] [D]

And [Em]when did we all [C]stop thinking of the world, stop [G]spinning in a kiss [D]goodnight?
And [Em]when did our [C]heartbeat beating too fast, start [G]meaning it was worth [D]the while?

[G]Holding hands to holding [D]back everything, no [Em]no. [C]
[G]No, no, [D]oh, and [Em]words got shorter [C]and quiet got longer
And [G]all of a sudden love [D]started looking like a memory. [Em] [C]no, [G] [D]no, no


They started saying when you [Em]can’t hide, [C]run, when you [G]can’t run, [D]hide
