Intro:
B minorBm       Dmaj7Dmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2  A augmentedA
  Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooooh


Verse 1:
B minorBm           Dmaj7Dmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2
Every time you come around, you know I can't say no
B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7         Gsus2Gsus2
Every time the sun goes down, I let you take control
B minorBm           Dmaj7Dmaj7       Gsus2Gsus2
I can feel the paradise before my world implodes
   B minorBm      Dmaj7Dmaj7    N.C.
And tonight had something wonderful


Chorus 1:
           B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7
My bad habits lead to late nights, endin' alone
           Gsus2Gsus2
Conversations with a stranger I barely know
     A augmentedA        B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7
Swearin' this will be the last but it probably won't
           E minor 7Em7       G+G
I got nothin' left to lose, or use, or do

           B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7
My bad habits lead to wide eyes starin' at space
            Gsus2Gsus2
And I know I'll lose control of the things that I say
      A augmentedA       B minorBm             Dmaj7Dmaj7
Yeah I was lookin' for a way out, now I can't escape
           E minor 7Em7
Nothin' happens after two, it's true
   G+G             B minorBm
It's true my bad habits lead to you

Post-Chorus 1:
      Dmaj7Dmaj7        Gsus2Gsus2
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh
           B minorBm
My bad habits lead to you
      Dmaj7Dmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooooh
           B minorBm
My bad habits lead to you


Verse 2:
B minorBm           Dmaj7Dmaj7         Gsus2Gsus2
Evеry pure intention ends when the good times start
B minorBm          Dmaj7Dmaj7            Gsus2Gsus2
Fallin' over everything to reach the first time's spark
  B minorBm          Dmaj7Dmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2
It started under neon lights and then it all got dark
 B minorBm    Dmaj7Dmaj7     E minor 7Em7
I only know how to go too far


Chorus 2:
           B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7

Conversations with a stranger I barely know
     A augmentedA        B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7
Swearin' this will be the last but it probably won't

I got nothin' left to lose, or use, or do

           B minorBm            Dmaj7Dmaj7
My bad habits lead to wide eyes starin' at space
            Gsus2Gsus2
And I know I'll lose control of the things that I say
      A augmentedA       B minorBm             Dmaj7Dmaj7
Yeah I was lookin' for a way out, now I can't escape
           E minor 7Em7
Nothin' happens after two, it's true
   G+G             B minorBm
It's true my bad habits lead to you

My bad habits lead to you
      Dmaj7Dmaj7          Gsus2Gsus2
Ooh-ooh ooh-ooooh, ooh-ooh-ooh ooh-ooooh


Bridge:
D MajorD      F# minorF#m    G+G
We took the long way 'round
  D MajorD        F# minorF#m   E minor 7Em7
And burned 'til the fun ran out, now
