Rather Be Us

[Verse 1: Jake Scott]

We can pop that bottle

We can go get dressed

We can make that call I don't want to yet

'Cause we both got texts from all of our friends

Saying there's a house party over on the west end

And you ask me if I wanna go

But your smile says it all 'cause you already know

[Chorus: Jake Scott]

I'd rather be here, rather be us

Feeling that first-night butterfly rush

Rather be hanging out with you, baby

Chasing that coastline summertime crush

I'd rather be here, riding these roads

Making me swerve 'cause you're pulling me close

I'd rather be anywhere you are, falling in love

I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us

I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us

[Verse 2: Maddie & Tae, All]

Already been there, done that

Best part of going out's when we come back home

You and I alone, all night long

'Cause those neon lights have lost their shine

And those honeycomb eyes are the reason why

[Chorus: Jake Scott, Maddie & Tae]

I'd rather be here, rather be us

Feeling that first-night butterfly rush

Rather be hanging out with you, baby

Chasing that coastline summertime crush

I'd rather be here, riding these roads

Making me swerve 'cause you're pulling me close

I'd rather be anywhere you are, falling in love

I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us

[Post-Chorus: Jake Scott]

I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us, yeah

[Bridge: Jake Scott, Maddie & Tae]

Oh, I'm running out of reasons we should go

[Chorus: Jake Scott, Maddie & Tae]

I'd rather be here, rather be us

Feeling that first-night butterfly rush

Rather be hanging out with you, baby

Chasing that coastline summertime crush

I'd rather be here, riding these roads

Making me swerve 'cause you're pulling me close

I'd rather be anywhere you are, falling in love

I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us

[Outro: Jake Scott]

Yeah, I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us

Oh, I'd rather be here, I'd rather be us
