                  C#
I got a warning today
                    G# 
We gotta figure it out
                          A#m
'Cause when you make a mistake
                    D#m
You gotta figure it out

Left me with some kind of taste
I saw you once on the sidewalk
There on Mercer and Spring
We started out in the same place

I wanna mould in your shape, yeah
You gave me reason to ignite
I know the weather could change
Stuck in a permanent high tide

               C#
Hold back the lies 'cause I'm needing the truth
                G# 
I wait for the sun like I'm ready to bloom
                 A#m
I'd be there for life if you wanted me to
              D#m
If you've got something to say
I need you to say it, say it now

Chorus:
          C#
I wanna stay awake tonight
         G# 
I wanna go against the tide
         A#m
I wanna stay with you tonight
         D#m
I wanna stay with you tonight
I wanna stay awake tonight
I wanna go against the tide
I wanna stay with you tonight
I wanna stay with you tonight

Say it now

Something in my heart is telling me the things
I want is what I've been waiting for
Something in my heart is telling me the truth
If you've got something to say
I need you to say it (Say it now)

Something in my heart is telling me the things
I want is what I've been waiting for
Something in my heart is telling me the truth
If you've got something to say
I need you to say it (Say it now)
