Am                G                    D 
 I wish that this night would never be over 
         Am                G             D 
 There's plenty of time to sleep when we die 
    Am                G                 D 
 So let's just stay awake until we grow older 
       C               E              F          E     D 
 If I had my way we'd never close our eyes, our eyes  
 
 
 
Verse: 
 
Am              G               D 
 I don't wanna let a minute get away 
Am            G           D 
 Cause we got no time to lose 
 Am                 G                 D 
 None of us are promised to see tomorrow 
Am            G               D 
 And what we do is ours to choose 
 
Pre-chorus:
 
                   F 
 Forget about the sunrise 
                     G 
 Fight the sleep in your eyes 
                Am 
 I don't wanna miss a second with you 
                        F 
 Let's stay this way forever 
                    G                   D 
 It's only getting better if we want it to 
 
 You know that 
 
 
 
Am                 G                   D 
 I wish that this night would never be over 
           Am                G            D 
 There's plenty of time to sleep when we die 
    Am                G                 D 
 So let's just stay awake until we grow older 
       C               E             F          E     D 
 If I had my way we'd never close our eyes, our eyes  
 
Verse:
 
 
Am        G                        D 
 It's so hard to think this would fade away 
Am             G              D 
 But what goes up must come down 
 Am                 G                 D 
 Why can't we just live life with no consequence 
Am           G          D 
 And always living the now 
  
Pre-chorus:
 
                    F 
 Forget about the sunrise 
                     G 
 Fight the sleep in your eyes 
                Am 
 I don't wanna miss a second with you 
                        F 
 Let's stay this way forever 
                    G                  D 
 It's only getting better if we want it to 
  
 You know that 
 
 
 
Am                G                    D 
 I wish that this night would never be over 
           Am                G            D 
 There's plenty of time to sleep when we die 
    Am               G                 D 
 So let's just stay awake until we grow older 
       C               E             F         E     D 
 If I had my way we'd never close our eyes, our eyes  
 
 Never!

You know that 
Am                 G                   D 
 I wish that this night would never be over 
           Am                G            D 
 There's plenty of time to sleep when we die 
    Am                G                 D 
 So let's just stay awake until we grow older

 Never!  
 
 End on: Am
