Chords with lyrics

Verse:
G+G            C majorC          G+G
Everybody seemed to have somebody better to talk to
G+G                      C majorC
Everybody seemed to have something better to do
               D MajorD           G+G
And I was trying to look so mean and dangerous and ended up stepping on her toe
  C majorC          D MajorD
And one minute she was a perfect stranger and the next thing she said was

I thought you ought to know

Chorus:
         C majorC
I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
         G+G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
         D MajorD
You don't have to make me any promises
      A minorAm     D MajorD
I can leave anytime I know
               C majorC
Even though I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
         G+G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
          D MajorD
You don't have to make me any promises
      A minorAm D MajorD   G+G
I can leave anytime I know

Verse:
G+G                  C majorC           G+G
As I was drinking she was making her selection over in the corner
G+G                            C majorC
Still thinking about the dancing perfection out on the floor
                 D MajorD         G+G  D MajorD    G+G
I'd like to shake the hand of the man who started "slow dancing" time
  C majorC         D MajorD          A minorAm   D MajorD
And curse the crazy fool who dreamed up "closing time"

Chorus:
               C majorC
Even though, I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
         G+G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
         D MajorD
You don't have to make me any promises
      A minorAm     D MajorD
I can leave anytime I know
               C majorC
Even though, I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
         G+G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
         D MajorD
You don't have to make me any promises
      A minorAm     D MajorD
I can leave anytime I know
              C majorC G+G
Even though, I don't wanna go home
