[VERSE 1] DEmG Knock on my door boy come home D You stay in my head EmG Lay in my arms why won't you D It's been way too long EmG What you waiting on D Cause I've been laying here EmG Learning what the memories won't do
[CHORUS 1] EmG See I need you and baby I need to DA Let down my guard and give you my scars Em Open up my heart G We could be stars DEmG We could be stars DEmG We could be stars
[VERSE 2] DEmG Rap on my window come home DEm It's been a while so stick around G Why don't you D Til the end of time EmG Say that you'll be mine DEm An uphill climb fighting what the heart G Really wants to do
[CHORUS 2] Em See I need you G And sometimes we need to DA Shed our facade and be just who we are EmG All broken and torn then we could be stars DEmG Oh we could be stars DEmG We could be stars G We could be stars
[BRIDGE] EmG Piercing lights in the dark Em Make the galaxy ours G Kingdom right where we are C Shining bright as a morning B You'll never be lonely Bb Just promise you'll love me A I'm never too far G#m And we'll never part G And we could be stars
[CHORUS 3] DEmG Oh we could be stars DEmG We could be stars D Oh we could be stars
[VERSE 3] EmG Just find way to get home D There's a space in my heart EmG Open arms for you to run to DEm Baby close your eyes and take the leap G To make believe in fairytales D I'll meet you there EmG Oh yea I'll fall too
[CHORUS 3] Em See I've wanted you here G All along but my fear DA Just keeps haunting me won't let me go Em So it's hard to say I love you G We could be stars DEmG Oh we could be stars DEmG We could be stars DEmG We could be stars
