[VERSE 1:] GC I had a dream last night A7DGCA7D I didn't know which floor to get off on, heyyyeyy GCA7D The doors, they opened on 4 and 5 and 6 GCA7D And you were gone, all gone GC I didn't understand A7D I didn't wanna know GC At least I took a chance A7D I had to let it go
[PRE-CHORUS:] GC Elevator goes up AD Elevator come down GC And you just go with the flow AD Until your feet are back on the ground
[CHORUS:] GC It's an endless ride A7D Sometimes it takes you up GCA7D Sometimes it tears you down inside GC But it's the butterflies A7DGC That keep you feeling so alive, so alive A7D You gotta get back that high
[VERSE 2:] GC And in my dream last night A7DGCA7D The doors they finally shut and I was there, somewhere GCA7D Alone in my reality inside an empty box G That's filled with air CA7D But I don't care, noooo GC Next time I'll get it right A7D Next time I'll be okay GCA7 I'll have a different dream tonight D Tomorrow's another day
[PRE-CHORUS:] GC Elevator goes up (elevator goes up) AD Elevator come down GC And you just go with the flow AD Until your feet are back on the ground
[CHORUS:] GC It's an endless ride A7D Sometimes it takes you up GCA7D Sometimes it tears you down inside GC But it's the butterflies A7DGC That keep you feeling so alive, so alive A7D You gotta get back that high
[BRIDGE:] GC You'll never know A7 What you're gonna get D What you don't expect will come and find you GC If you laugh or cry A7 If you run and hide D But it's all right
[PRE-CHORUS:] GC Elevator goes up AD Elevator come down GC And you just go with the flow AD Until your feet are back on the ground
[CHORUS:] GC It's an endless ride A7D Sometimes it takes you up GCA7D Sometimes it tears you down inside GC But it's the butterflies A7DGC That keep you feeling so alive, so alive A7D You gotta get back that high.
