Verse:
                 C
I had a bad habit
                D       C
Of missing lovers past
                            D    C
My brother used to call it
           D              Em
"Eating out of the trash"
              G        D
Itʼs never gonna last
                                   C
I thought my house was haunted
              D           C
I used to live with ghosts
                D          C
And all the perfect couples
         D                            Em
Said, "When you know, you know"
                          G           D
And, "When you donʼt, you donʼt"
 
Pre-chorus:
        C                                                   D
And all of the foes, and all of the friends (Ha, ha)
            C                                               D
Theyʼve seen it before, theyʼll see it again (Ha, ha)
C
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
         Em      G D
I was wrong.
But my mama told me
 
Chorus:
G
Itʼs alright
                                            Em
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
                       Am
Sleepless in the onyx night
                             D
But now the sky is opalite
      D    C    Bm Am  G
Oh, oh- oh- oh  oh,  oh my Lord
                                Em
Never met no one like you before
                                Am
You had to make your own sunshine
                           D
But now the sky is opalite
      D   C    Bm Am
Oh, oh-oH- oh  oh-oh
 
Verse:
                             C
You couldnʼt understand it
                     D    C
Why you felt alone
                      D     C
You were in it for real
                      Em
She was in her phone
                    G       D
And you were just a pose
                            C
And donʼt we try to love love? (Love love?)
                            D    C
We give it all weʼve got (Give it all weʼve got)
                           D  C
You finally left the table (Uh, uh)
                           Em
And what a simple thought
                      G            D
Youʼre starving ʼtil youʼre not.
 
Pre-chorus:
      C
And all of the foes and all of the friends (Ha, ha)
        D          C
Have messed up before, theyʼll mess up again (Ha, ha)
C
Life is a song, it ends when it ends
               Em    G  D
You move on
And thatʼs when I told you
 
Chorus:
G
Itʼs alright
                                            Em
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
                       Am
Sleepless in the onyx night
                             D
But now the sky is opalite
      D    C    Bm Am  G
Oh, oh- oh- oh  oh,  oh my Lord
                                Em
Never met no one like you before
                                Am
You had to make your own sunshine
                           D
But now the sky is opalite
      D   C    Bm Am
Oh, oh-oH- oh  oh-oh
 
Bridge:
G                                       Em
This is just a storm inside a teacup
                              Am
But shelter here with me, my love
                     D
Thunder like a drum
                               D    C    Bm Am
This life will beat you up, up, up  up
G                                  Em
This is just a temporary speed bump
                               Am
But failure brings you freedom
                              D
And I can bring you love, love, love, love, love
Donʼt you sweat it, baby
 
Chorus:
G
Itʼs alright
                                            Em
You were dancing through the lightning strikes
                                 Am
Oh, so sleepless in the onyx night
                           D
But now the sky is opalite
      D    C    Bm Am  G
Oh, oh- oh- oh  oh,  oh my Lord
                                Em
Never met no one like you before (No)
                                Am
You had to make your own sunshine
                           D
But now the sky is opalite
      D   C    Bm Am
Oh, oh-oH- oh  oh-oh
