E
And will we,
F#m7
Get back,
G#m7
All our inhibitions,
A
All the codes you're wishing,
E
We,
F#m7
Could crack?
G#m7
And if love is in the city,
A E
Then why is home so pretty and grey,
F#m7
And black?
G#m7 A
Tell me, do you wanna stay a little longer?
E
With me,
F#m7
In the backroom,
G#m7
All your serotonin,
A
Flooding through the morning,
E
Do you,
F#m7
Get sad?
G#m7
When you know it could be over?
A
Curtains they would close,
E
When the sun,
F#m7
Would rise,
G#m7
I watch your pupils dimmer,
A
Your blood runs quick and thinner.
E F#m7
Won't you stay with me? I love you so,
G#m7 A
Won't you sing with me, please, every note?
E F#m7
How I long to be 18 years old,
G#m7
In the crossfire,
A
In the cold.
E
Will we,
F#m7
Regret,
G#m7
All of those distractions,
A
Ways that we reacted?
E
When you,
F#m7
Felt low,
G#m7 A
Is there something in the setting sun that you're forgetting, son?
E F#m7
Do we belong in a higher place?
G#m7
In a powder race?
A
How do we erase,
E F#m7
The sinking sand embedded deep in our heads?
G#m7
Carefully you'll tread,
A
Hold my hand instead.
E F#m7
Won't you stay with me? I love you so,
G#m7 A
Won't you sing with me, please, every note?
E F#m7
How I long to be 18 years old,
G#m7
In the crossfire,
A
In the cold,
E F#m7 G#m7 A
In the cold.
E F#m7 G#m7 A

E F#m7
Won't you meet me at the loft at 4 Baillie Street?
G#m7
Hold on to your dreams,
A
Hold them tight with me,
E F#m7
How I long to be at peace and in harmony,
G#m7
Won't you stay with me?
A
Won't you stay with me.
