[Intro] D C [Verse 1] D I, I'm lost in my head again Time travellin' C Runnin', runnin' away with darkness, my only friend D Don't wanna do this all again You pull me back down to earth Close off your hands around, C hands around me Grace landin' onto your bed there you are [Pre-Chorus] D In my head, there's a beat It's the beat that you make When you're movin' your body C You prove that I can't escape, I can't escape D Got my heart in your hands And your hands on my chest And my chest is a breath C It's the breath that you take away [Chorus] and you said, "Shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance" C Hey, oh oh You said, "Just shut off the lights, D we don't need th?m to dance" C Oh, oh You said, "Just shut off the lights, shut off the lights" [Verse 2] D Wh?n drunk, we're invincible C No bar went quietly into the night This dream is our universe D You are my gravity tonight No talk of the future now Dark thoughts, you're shakin' C 'em, takin' 'em out This rhythm that we create sets me straight [Pre-Chorus] D In my head, there's a beat It's the beat that you make When you're movin' your body C You prove that I can't escape, I can't escape D Got my heart in your hands And your hands on my chest And my chest is a breath C It's the breath that you take away [Chorus] And you said, "Shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance" C Hey, oh oh You said, "Just shut off the lights, D we don't need th?m to dance" C Oh, oh You said, "Just shut off the lights, shut off the lights" [Post-Chorus] D Last night, you said, "Empty your head" C Be here with me Shut off the lights, we don't D need them to dance We'll tune out the noise for a moment C You said, "Let's just shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance" [Bridge] D Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm C Oh-oh, you said, "Let's just shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance" Mmm, mmm, mmm, mmm (Oh, no we don't, C no we don't, no we don't, no we don't, no we don't, no we don't, no we don't, no we don't) Oh-oh, you said, "Let's just D C shut off the lights, oh" Shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance [Outro] D Last night, you said, "Empty your head" C Be here with me Shut off the lights, D we don't need them to dance We'll tune out the C noise for a moment You said, "Let's just shut off the lights, we don't D need them to dance"
