[Verse 1]

C
I don't blame you
Em
We got carried away
Am
I can't hold on
F
To an empty space


[Chorus 1]

    C
Now you've found a new star to orbit
Em                                                   Am
It could be love, I think you're too soon to call us old
                         F
When and where did we go cold?
                      C
I thought I had you on hold


                              Em
And every time I let you leave
                                  Am
I always saw you coming back to me
                         F
When and where did we go cold?
                      C
I thought I had you on hold


[Post-Chorus 1]

C
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
Am
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to
F
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
D5
  You've got the body, you've got the body, I thought I had you on hold


C
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
Am
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to
F
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
D5
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to


[Verse 2]

C  
  My young heart chose to believe
G
  We were destined
Am                          Am/B
  Young hearts all need love
C
  Call it a lesson


    C
The stars and the charts and the cards make sense
G
Only when we want them to
     Am                            Am/B
When I lie awake staring into space
  C
I see a different view


[Chorus 2]

    C
Now you've found a new star to orbit
Em                                                   Am
It could be love, I think you're too soon to call us old
                         F
When and where did we go cold?
                      C
I thought I had you on hold


                              Em
And every time I let you leave
                                  Am
I always saw you coming back to me
                         F
When and where did we go cold?
                      C
I thought I had you on hold
                      Em
I thought I had you on hold
                      Am    F
I thought I had you on hold


[Post-Chorus 2]

C
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
Am
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to
F
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
D5
  You've got the body, you've got the body, you've got the body, you've got the body


C
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
Am
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to
F
  Where does it stop, where does it stop, where do you dare me to?
D5
  You've got the body, you've got the body, dare me to, dare me to


[Chorus 3]

C                               Em
  And every time I let you leave
                                  Am
I always saw you coming back to me
                         F
When and where did we go cold?
                      C
I thought I had you on hold
                      Em
I thought I had you on hold
                      Am    F
I thought I had you on hold
