Lightning In A Bottle
View chords used in this chart
E
Out in the wild
Party in nowhere land
B
We start a fire
Sparklers in every hand
C#m
No phones let go
A
Cut all the strings tonight
E
Singin' aloud
Howlin' right at the moon
B
We're making out
Life's never felt so good
C#m
Bring on the storm
A
We're wilin' out tonight
A E
Then you lost your shoes as it started to rain
A
And your jeans soaked through
E
But you smiled anyway
A
Throw our hearts in the air
Hearts in the air
B
Hearts in the air
E
We're catching lightning in a bottle
C#m
Don't give a fuck about tomorrow
A
Yeah we're dancing in the backseat
B
We don't need gravity here in the afterglow
E
Yeah we're rolling with the thunder
C#m
Now take a breath, we're going under
A
We're getting busy on the backstreets
B
We don't need gravity here in the afterglow
E
Back of the car
Blankets and me and you
B
We're running on perfectly wasted youth
C#m
I'll hold you close
A
We'll call this home tonight
A E
And the fake tattoo that you drew on my arm
A
Had an X and an O
E
Never change who you are
A
Throw our hearts in the air
Hearts in the air
B
Hearts in the air
E
We're catching lightning in a bottle
C#m
Don't give a fuck about tomorrow

We don't need gravity here in the afterglow
