Counting Stars

INTRO​

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep​
Dreaming about the things that we could be​
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard​
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars"​
Yeah, we'll be counting stars​

​RIFF X2

VERSE 1​

I see this life, like a swinging vine​
Swing my heart across the line​
And in my face is flashing signs​
Seek it out and ye shall find​

Old, but I'm not that old​
Young, but I'm not that bold​
And I don't think the world is sold​
On just doing what we're told​

​

PRE-CHORUS​

I feel something so right​
Doing the wrong thing​
And I feel something so wrong​
Doing the right thing​
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie​
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive​

​

CHORUS & RIFF

Lately, I've been, I've been losing sleep​
Dreaming about the things that we could be​
But baby, I've been, I've been praying hard​
Said, "No more counting dollars, we'll be counting stars“​

​​

VERSE 2​

I feel your love, and I feel it burn​
Down this river, every turn​
Hope is our four-letter word​
Make that money, watch it burn​

Old, but I'm not that old​
Young, but I'm not that bold​
And I don't think the world is sold​
On just doing what we're told​

​

PRE-CHORUS​

BRIDGE​ & RIFF

Oh, take that money, watch it burn​
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned​
Take that money, watch it burn​
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned​
Take that money, watch it burn​
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned​
Take that money, watch it burn​
Sink in the river the lessons I've learned​
Everything that kills me makes me feel alive​
