Capo III**
[D]
Give me a second, I
I need to get my story straight
[Bm]
My friends are in the bathroom
Getting higher than the Empire State
[Em]
My lover she is waiting for me
[G]
Just across the bar,
[Em]
My seat's been taken by some sunglasses
[G]
Asking 'bout a scar
[D]
I know I gave it to you months ago
[Bm]
I know you're trying to forget
[Em]
But between the drinks and subtle things
[G]
And the holes in my apologies
[Em] [A]
You know I'm trying hard to take it back
[G] [Em] [A]
So if by the time the bar closes
[Bm] [Em] [G]
And you feel like falling down
[Em] [A]
I'll carry you home
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[D]
Now I know that I'm not
All that you got
[Bm]
I guess that I,
I just thought,
[Em] [G] [Em]
Maybe we could find new ways to fall apart
[G] [Em]
But our friends are back
[G] [Em]
So let's raise the cup
[G] [A]
'Cause I found someone to carry me home
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[D] [G]
Carry me home tonight
[D] [G] [D] [A]
*(La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la) * this is all background
[D] [A]
Just carry me home tonight
[D] [G]
Carry me home tonight
[D] [G] [D] [A]
(La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
[D] [A]
Just carry me home tonight
[D]
(The world is on my side,)
[D] [G] [D] [A]
(La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
[G]
(I have no reason to run,)
[A] [D]
(So will someone come and carry me home tonight?)
[D] [G]
The angels never arrived,
[D] [G] [D] [A]
(La la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la la)
[D]
But I can hear the choir
[A]
So will someone come and carry me home
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[D]
Tonight,
[Bm]
We are young
[Em]* [G]
So let's set the world on fi re
[Em]* [G]
We can burn brighter
[D] [A]
Than the sun
[G] [Em] [G]
So if by the time the bar closes
[Bm] [Em] [G]
And you feel like falling down
[G] [A]
I'll carry you home,
[D]
Tonight.
