Counting Stars

OneRepublic
Guitar + sang
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
Intro 8 takter (første 4 trommer + bas + klaver)
Vers 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
Bro 1
I-I-I-I feel something so right
Doing the wrong thing
I-I-I-I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I couldn't lie, couldn't lie, couldn't lie
(BREAK ) Everything that kills me makes me feel alive
Omkvæd
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
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, we'll be counting stars
Mellemspil 4 takter
Vers 2 (kun guitar + perc.)
I feel the love and I feel it burn
Down this river, every turn
Hope is our four-letter word
Make that money, watch it burn (alle på)
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
Bro 2
I-I-I-I feel something so wrong
Doing the right thing
I could lie, could lie, could lie
Everything that drowns me makes me wanna fly
Omkvæd
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
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, we'll be counting stars

C-stykke (klap + perc.)

I: Take that money
Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I've learned :I x4
Everything that kills me, makes feel alive...
Omkvæd:
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

We'll be counting stars
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, we'll be counting stars

Watch it burn
Sink in the river
The lessons I've learned :I x4
