By request, Rooftops and Invitations,
as you know I don't have a musical ear,
so if there are chord changes missing please forgive me.
It seems too simple to me,
the KISS principle says to "keep it simple, stupid" so here it goes...
listen to the song to get the timings down.
Tuning: Half Step Down (D# G# C# F# A# D#)
Key of D#
{D# F G G# Bb C D D#}
CHORDS EADGBE (Half step down)

G# 577655
G#add9 577600
INTRO:
A#add11 Gm G#add9 x4
VERSE 1:
A#add11 D#5
the first time you looked at her curves you were hooked
A#add11 D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add11
and the glances you took, took hold of you and demanded that you stay
D#5
and sunk in their teeth, bit your heart and released
A#add11 D#5 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
such a charge that you need another touch, another taste, another fix
CHORUS:
A#add11 D#5
she just might get you lost
Cm7 D#5
and she just might leave you torn
A#add11 D#5
but she just might save your soul
Gmadd11 D#5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
A#add11 Gm G#add9 x2
VERSE 2:
A#add11 D#5 A#add11
she leads you up, points out skylines and stars, steeple chases in bars
D#5 Gm(barred) G#add9 A#add9
and took your keys and demanded that you stay
D#5
the city longs well for rooftops and invitations
A#add11 G#add9 Gm(barred) G#add9
all lace in secret places, she moves you to touch with her hands
CHORUS:
A#add11 D#5
she just might get you lost
Cm7 D#5
and she just might leave you torn
A#add11 D#5
but she just might save your soul
Gmadd11 D#5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
BRIDGE:
G# Cm D#sus2 Cm G#
under the cold sheet, where the welcomed touch of skin and skin will meet
Cm D#sus2
out on the inside where a girls prize is at the tip of your tongue
A# D#sus2 Csus2 D#sus2
where every move and each impulse brings clarity
A# D#sus2 Csus2 D#sus2
to stay like this is everything you'll ever need
CHORUS:
A#add11 D#5
she just might get you lost
Cm7 D#5
and she just might leave you torn
A#add11 D#5
but she just might save your soul
Gmadd11 D#5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
A#add11 D#5
she just might get you lost
Cm7 D#5
and she just might leave you torn
A#add11 D#5
but she just might save your soul
Gmadd11 D#5
if she gets you when she gets you any closer
OUTRO:
G#add9 Gm
can you believe your eyes?...
A#add11 Gm G#add9 x2
