(plucking is here) Am, C, G, F
 
Am CLately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
G FDreaming about the things that we could be
Am CBut baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
GSaid, no more counting dollars
F FWe'll be counting stars, yeah we'll be counting stars
 
AmI see this life like a swinging vine
CSwing my heart across the line
GIn my face is flashing signs
FSeek it out and ye shall find
AmOh, but I'm not that old
CYoung, but I'm not that bold
GI don't think the world is sold
FI'm just doing what we're told
 
Am C GI feel something so right
FDoing the wrong thing
Am C GI feel something so wrong
FDoing the right thing
FI could lie, could lie, could lie
F (1 strum)
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
 
 
Am CLately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
G FDreaming about the things that we could be
Am CBut baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
GSaid, no more counting dollars
FWe'll be counting stars
 
Am CLately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
G FDreaming about the things that we could be
Am CBut baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
GSaid, no more counting dollars
FWe'll be, we'll be counting stars
 
 
Repeat For the next verse
 
AmI feel the love and I feel it burn
CDown this river, every turn
GHope is a four-letter word
FMake that money, watch it burn
AmOh, but I'm not that old
CYoung, but I'm not that bold
GI don't think the world is sold
FI'm just doing what we're told
Am C G I feel something so wrong
FDoing the right thing
FI could lie, could lie, could lie
F (1 strum)
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
 
Am CLately, I've been, I've been losing sleep
G FDreaming about the things that we could be
Am CBut baby, I've been, I've been praying hard,
GSaid, no more counting dollars
FWe'll be counting stars
