[Intro]
E B x2
[Verse 1]
E B
This is when the ink stops flowing
E G#m F#
This is when my head starts going
E G#m F#
This is when I just can't get it out
E B
This is when the hits keep coming
E G#m F#
Just when I think I'm on to something
E G#m F#
This is when the bottom bottoms out
[Refrain 1]
G#m E B F#
I promise good enough for you
G#m E B F#
and Then I never keep it
G#m E B
I pace the floor at night when
F# C#m
all the pretty world is sleeping
E
And all the world is sleeping
[Chorus 1]
B
When the lights go down and
E
the girls are screaming
G#m F# B
Don't stop now Then I catch
E
my breath and my heart is
G#m
beating and all I'm thinking
F# E B E B E B F#
is Don't stop now
[Verse 2]
E B
This is when my hands are shaking
E G#m F#
This is when the rules are breaking
E G#m F#
This is when the music plays too loud
E B
This is when it's now or never
E G#m F#
When it goes from bad to better
E G#m F#
This is when it all makes sense somehow
[Refrain 2]
G#m E B F#
I promise good enough for you
G#m E B F#
And pray that I can keep it
G#m E B
And all the world is watching
F# C#m E
While I'm open mouthed and dreaming
[Chorus 2]
B
When the lights go down and
E
the girls are screaming
G#m F# B
Don't stop now Then I catch

my breath and my heart is
G#m
beating and all I'm thinking
F#
is Don't stop now

And find that I can keep it

And all the world is right with
F# C#m
me And all we are is breathing
[Verse 3]
E B
This is when the ink starts flowing
E G#m F#
This is where my heart is going
E G#m F#
This is when my hands belong to You
[Chorus 3]
