No Capo

Intro: C majorC  A minorAm  FF  C majorC

 C majorC              A minorAm
Well you're sitting on the barstool

 FF            C majorC
Keeping motionless as you can be

 C majorC            A minorAm
Thinking maybe if you lucky

 FF                         C majorC          G+G        A minorAm
Life is like T-Rex and stillness will sweep you away

 G+G      C majorC
To where it’s safe

 C majorC                  A minorAm
Cause you're feeling like the last person

 FF          C majorC
Left on the planet tonight

 C majorC            A minorAm
And you’re scanning the horizon

 FF                             C majorC          G+G  A minorAm
 Seeking out sign of life and you pray you're wrong but you're right

 G+G     C majorC
So hold on tight

 C majorC                 DmDm                FF          C majorC
Cause all that stares back at you are bloodless zombie eyes

 C majorC             DmDm     FF           C majorC          A minorAm     DmDm     FF
Why don't you come home with me tonight, alright, alright

 A minorAm                     G+G                C majorC          FF
I'm not trying to make you think this is some kind of great big deal

 A minorAm         G+G            C majorC
I just know exactly how you feel

 A minorAm                   G+G            C majorC            FF
I could be the one you reach for in the middle of the night

 A minorAm         G+G                C majorC    FF
Let me be the one who treats you right

 A minorAm         G+G                C majorC
Let me be the one who treats you right


Now I know you never seen me
There's no reason for you to pay mind
But I'm asking very nicely
All it takes is one chance to start leaving the dead behind
And try out a walking life
I mean, what's the worst thing that could happen
We find out that we don't fit
But on the flipside we could be just right
And sure there's a chance that we'll both and up broken and split
But that’s my kind of risk
So quit worrying where they'll fall if you should roll the dice
Why don't you come home with me tonight, alright, alright
I'm not trying to make you think this is some kind of great big deal
I just know exactly how you feel
I could be the one you reach for in the middle of the night
Let me be the one who treats you right
Let me be the one who treats you right
