Verse 1
[Cmaj7]
I had a bad habit
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
Of missing lovers past
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
My brother used to call it
[D/F#] [Em]
"Eating out of the trash"
[D/F#]
It's never gonna last
[Cmaj7]
I thought my house was haunted
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
I used to live with ghosts
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
And all the perfect couples
[D/F#] [Em]
Said "When you know you know"
[D/F#]
And "When you don't you don't"
Pre-Chorus
[Cmaj7] [D/F#]
And all of the foes and all of the friends (ah, ah)
[Cmaj7] [D/F#]
Have seen it before, they'll see it again (ah, ah)
[Cmaj7]
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
[D/F#] [Em]
I was wrong
Chorus
[D/F#] [G]
But my mama told me it's alright
[Em]
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
[Am]
Sleepless in the onyx night
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite
[G]
Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord
[Em]
Never made no one like you before
[Am]
You had to make your own sunshine
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite (Oh oh oh oh oh)
Verse 2
N.C. [Cmaj7]
You couldn't understand it
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
Why you felt alone
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
You were in it for real
[D/F#] [Em]
She was in her phone
[D/F#]
And you were just a pose
N.C. [Cmaj7]
And don't we try to love love?
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
We give it all we got
[D/F#] [Cmaj7]
You finally left the table
[D/F#] [Em]
And what a simple thought
[D/F#]
You're starving 'til you're not
Pre-Chorus
[Cmaj7] [D/F#]
And all of the foes and all of the friends (ah, ah)
[Cmaj7] [D/F#]
Have messed up before, they'll mess up again (ah, ah)
[Cmaj7]
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
[D/F#] [Em]
You move on
Chorus
[D/F#] [G]
And that's when I told you it's alright
[Em]
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
[Am]
Sleepless in the onyx night
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite
[G]
Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord
[Em]
Never met no one like you before
[Am]
You had to make your own sunshine
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite
Bridge
Oh oh oh oh
[G] [Em]
This is just a storm inside a teacup
[Am]
But shelter here with me, my love
[D]
Thunder like a drum, this life will beat you up, up, up, up
[G] [Em]
This is just a temporary speed bump
[Am]
But failure brings you freedom
[D] N.C.
And I can bring you love, love, love, love, love!
Don't you sweat it, baby
Chorus
[G]
It's alright
[Em]
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
[Am]
(Oh so) Sleepless in the onyx night
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite
[G]
Oh oh oh oh, oh my Lord
[Em]
Never met no one like you before
[Am]
You had to make your own sunshine
[D]
But now the sky is Opalite
[G]*
Oh oh oh oh oh
