[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"
