[Verse 1]
 D
Sunrise got us up early
G
 So we put on our shade
 D
Somehow the bed sheets are dirty
G
 Like sticky sweet lemonade

[Pre-Chorus]
                        Em
Never wanna leave this room
 D/F#           G
Daydream, déjà vu
              A
If I had control over you

[Chorus]
                           Dmaj7
We could stay like this forever,
 lost in wonderland
                          Gmaj7
With our head above the clouds,
falling stupid like we're kids
                      Dmaj7
Wearing rose-colored lenses,
let's just play pretend
                      Gmaj7
Wearing rose-colored lenses,
                         A#
pretend we'll never end

[Verse 2]
 D
Naked in conversation
G
 Drown me in your daylight
D
Endless summer vacation
G
 Make it last 'til we die

[Pre-Chorus]
                        Em
My baby got looks that kill
 (Kill)
        D/F#             G
Make a mess of a nice hotel
(Hotel)
              A
If I had control over you

[Chorus]
                           Dmaj7
We could stay like this forever,
 lost in wonderland
                          G
With our head above the clouds,
falling stupid like we're kids
                      D
Wearing rose-colored lenses,
 let's just play pretend
                      Dmaj7
Wearing rose-colored lenses,
 pretend we'll never end

[Bridge]
        A#              Dmaj7
Let's stay like this forever
                        Gmaj7
Let's stay like this forever
