C                                              Dm
  I held open the door, we drove away in the storm
                                          Em
Never felt it before, being shook to the core
                                                 F
Cause we don't sleep anymore, we don't sleep anymore
                                             G
Wakin' up on the floor no we don't sleep anymore

(Don't cry love)
                                                           Am
Drinkin' cheap champaigne, you're always gone when you're paying
                                    G
For a downtown love, on an uptown train
                                                    G
Yeah your heart's gonna break, your heart's gonna break

 Young, dumb and afraid, in the springtime rains
                                           Em
Summer love went and came, almost blew us away

                                               G
Watch the colours that fall, turning two into grey
                                                Am
Yeah the seasons 'ill change, so will you everyday
