No disrespect intended towards previous uploaders, there has been some good transcriptions, 
but there is a few chords/details that I felt needed clarification in a new version. But not 
that it matters too much of course, just play the one you think sounds best:D



[Intro]: C Cmaj7 F  C Cmaj7 F

  C Cmaj7   F                 C        Cmaj7        F
Slow down, make it last, I'm having the time of my life
     C Cmaj7 F            Dm                       F
And take a photograph, I don't wanna leave this behind
      C   Cmaj7 F                  C        Cmaj7      F
What seems so out of reach, we're holding it right in our hands
       C Cmaj7 F                 Dm                     F
Let's give up everything, let's jump in and never look back
       Dm                 F      G
Let's jump in and never look back

        F C G                 F      C      G     (A5 G5)
This is all I ever wanted, but life got in my way
       F C G       Am        F          C       G
You're all I ever wanted, I didn't see how it could change
      F             C         G      F
That something was missing until today

     C Cmaj7 F            C         Cmaj7              F
The city comes alive, as soon as you walk through the door
  C Cmaj7 F                     Dm                   F
Another sleepless night, but I don't wanna sleep anymore
   Dm                   F G
I don't wanna sleep anymore

        F C G                 F      C      G     (A5 G5)
This is all I ever wanted, but life got in my way
       F C G       Am        F          C       G
You're all I ever wanted, I didn't see how it could change
      F             C         G     Am
That something was missing until today

(Am)         F                     C               G                Am
Climbing so high, just don't look down, we can see everything from here
                F                   C                  G         F
For once in my life, feet off the ground, don't wanna come back down

    C Cmaj7 F                C        Cmaj7     F
So take a photograph, we're having the time of our lives

         C  G                 F      C      G     (A5 G5)
This is all I ever wanted, but life got in my way
       F C G       Am        F          C             G
You're all I ever wanted, I didn't see how it could change
        F C G               F            C          G  (A5 G5)
This is all I ever wanted, nothing will get in the way
       F C G       Am         F           C       G
You're all I ever wanted, I knew it, somehow it could change
           F              C         G     F
I didn't know what I was missing until today
