Next to Me
Intro: Gmaj7, Cmaj7 x2
Verse 1:
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
You paint your body with emotions
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
With a little left to stain your sleeves
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
You’re the kind of girl who scared to ever see the spotlight
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
But once you’re there you never leave
(Interlude)
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
We keep dancing ‘round this prospect
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Of crossing borders meant for friends
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Well, I’ve gotta admit that I’m done with it
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
And I’m ready to break that bridge baby
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Ebmaj7
Even if it means the end…Ohh
Prechorus 1:
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7
It’s like being in love when I’m with you… Woah
Dm7 C#m7 Ebmaj7
And when we’re apart you’re on my mind
Bbmaj7
So let’s go ahead and deal with the issue
Ebmaj7 Dsus2 D
And tonight let’s try to never say goodbyeeeee

Chorus:
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Cause I don’t wanna fall asleep, if I can’t feel you next to me
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don’t wanna fall asleep at all
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
I don’t wanna fall asleep, if I can’t feel you next to me
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Ebmaj7 Dsus2 D
I don’t wanna fall asleep at all… At all, at all… Yeah… Oh, Oh…
Verse 2:
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
The morning after, what a picture
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
The sunlight sneakin’ through the blinds
Gmaj7 Cmaj7
Smilin’ faces we fight for space among the pillowcases
Gmaj7 Cmaj7 Ebmaj7
Defenseless bodies, intertwined… Oh…
Prechorus 2:
Bbmaj7 Ebmaj7
Just imagine a life in the fast lane
Dm7 C#m7 Ebmaj7
I won’t slow down, no STOP and go
Bbmaj7
We’ll get this love takin’ off like a jet plane
Ebmaj7 Dsus2 D
And when you said to get on board, baby, let me know
Chorus:
Bridge:
Am7 D7
Please forgive me if I’m coming on too strong
Am7 Dmaj7
I hide behind my confidence, and you known all along
Am7 D7
I’m a mess with conversations, but I’m messier with patience
Ebmaj7 F7 F#7 G#maj7
So let me hit the road this time and I’ll make it worth your while… Oh
Final Chorus:
G#maj7 C#maj7
Cause I don’t wanna fall asleep, if I can’t feel you next to me
G#maj7 C#maj7
I don’t wanna fall asleep at all
G#maj7 C#maj7
I don’t wanna fall asleep, if I can’t feel you next to me
G#maj7 C#maj7
I don’t wanna fall asleep at all… At all, at all… Yeah… Oh, Oh…
Repeat to End
