[Verse 1]
Am
Breaking my back just to know your name,
Dm F
Seventeen tracks and I've had it with this game.
Am
I'm breaking my back just to know your name,
But heaven ain't close in a place like this,
Dm F
Anything goes but don't blink, you might miss.
Am
Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this,
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this.
F G Am
Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight,
F G
Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight.
[ Chorus ]
Am
Well, somebody told me,

You had a boyfriend,

Who looked like a girlfriend.

That I had in February of last year,

I've got potential.

Am
Ready? Let's roll onto something new,

Taking it's toll and I'm leaving without you.

Cause heaven ain't close in a place like this,
I said heaven ain't close in a place like this.

Bring it back down, bring it back down tonight,

Never thought I'd let a rumour ruin my moonlight.

A rushin', a rushin' around.

Pace yourself for me,

I said maybe baby please.

But I just don't know now,

When all I wanna do is try.
