Woah oh [E]oh [F#m]woah oh oh
[section 2]
[D]Waves crashing on her feet, [Bm]standing in some [E]rolled up [F#m]jeans

A disappearing silhouette [F#m]with, flip-flops in her [Bm]hands
[chorus]
And every kiss is [D]burning [F#m]hot, I can’t [E]let ’em go to waste
Let’s say tonight is [D]all [E]that we’ve [F#m]got, and I’m [E]ready for the chase
[chorus]
We can be [D]sundowners, intertowners, [F#m]waiting on a spark
[E]Siren sounders, common wounders [A]tangled in the dark
[D]Like the moon is hanging, let’s [F#m]keep this dream awake
Let’s go [E]right into the AM, but tonight let’s be some [D]sundowners

[D]Blue gives into the black, red lips just [E]like a match [F#m]that
Sets me on [E]fire, while the [D]whole world falls asleep
Every look that you’re [E]giving [F#m]me, is taking me higher
[chorus]
And every kiss is [D]burning [F#m]hot, I can’t [E]let ’em go to waste
Let’s say tonight is [D]all [E]that we’ve [F#m]got, and I’m [E]ready for the chase
[chorus]
We can be [D]sundowners, intertowners, [F#m]waiting on a spark
[E]Siren sounders, common wounders [A]tangled in the dark
