[Chorus]
E B
Take me back to the ocean
F# G#m
Where the sea meets the open sky
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
E B
Lose yourself in slow motion
F# G#m
Take a hit, 'cause we need that high
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
 
[Verse 1]
E B
Sometimes I wonder if this is real life
F# G#m
Slip into a dream about a summer night
E B
Levitating, oh, oh
F# G#m
Levitating, oh, oh
E B
But then it's blurry, and it chokes and dies
F# G#m
Fall into reality, a swift decline
E B
No escaping, oh, oh
F# G#m
No escaping, oh, oh
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E B
We're two bright lights in a world of dark
F# G#m
That don't know how to see
E B
A red-hot mess and a work of art
F# G#m
They're just memories
 
[Chorus]
E B
Take me back to the ocean
F# G#m
Where the sea meets the open sky
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
E B
Lose yourself in slow motion
F# G#m
Take a hit, 'cause we need that high
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
 
[Verse 2]
E B
Sometimes I wonder what it's like to fly
F# G#m
If I bent my arms and put them by my sides
E B
Would I take off? Oh, oh
F# G#m
Would I take off? Oh, oh
E B
Soar above the forest and the ocean blue
F# G#m
Sail to the very corners of the earth with you
E B
It could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
But only if you want it to
 
[Pre-Chorus]
E B
We're breaking our hearts to the radio
F# G#m
When it gets too loud to sleep
E B
And painting on smiles any way we know
F# G#m
But they're melting in the heat
E B
And all along, the feeling's wrong
F# G#m
The taste is bittersweet
E B
But it's not over, it's never over
F# G#m
It doesn't have to be
 
[Chorus]
E B
Take me back to the ocean
F# G#m
Where the sea meets the open sky
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
E B
Lose yourself in slow motion
F# G#m
Take a hit, 'cause we need that high
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
 
[Break]
E B
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# G#m
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E B
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# G#m
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh (stay with me one more night)
E B
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# G#m
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
E B
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
F# G#m
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
 
[Chorus]
E B
Take me back to the ocean
F# G#m
Where the sea meets the open sky
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night (stay with me one more night)
E B
Lose yourself in slow motion
F# G#m
Take a hit, 'cause we need that high (need that high)
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
E B
Darling, this could be paradise, paradise
F# G#m
Stay with me one more night
