C               G            D
Last night, the feeling of a paradise,
Em                 D
When you caught my eye.
C               G               D
Your hands, the feeling of them intertwined,
Em                 D
Left as she walked by.
C

Now I'm stuck in a moment,
G
Broken and hopin'
Em                 D
You'll change your mind.

             C
If I'm being honest,
         G
I should be the one you hold.
Em            D
So tight, and never letting go.
          C
I'm being honest,
           G
You should see the way you look at me.
Em                    D                         Am
Don't pretend I'm the only one you don't see.
               C
'Cause I know,
G               D
Honestly, baby, I should be the one you hold.

I can't think of any other ways
Em                D
To get you off my mind.
C        G                 D
I know I fell in deep with you tonight
Em                    D
When you looked in my eyes.
C       G
Oh, Oh, you're making me blush.

Oh, Oh, can't you feel the rush?
C       G               D
Oh, Oh, one look is not enough.

Bridge:
Em                    G
Saturday night, never felt so right

When we're standing in the cold.
Em                       G
Look at the stars, never shine so bright,
C                           D
When you're with someone to love.
