Verse 1:
C majorC A minorAm FF                      C majorC A minorAm FF
   There's glitter on the floor after the party
                      C majorC A minorAm FF
Girls carrying their shoes down in the lobby
                 C majorC     A minorAm FF
Candle wax and Polaroids on the hardwood floor
                C majorC A minorAm FF
You and me from the night before,    but

Chorus:
C majorC   A minorAm  FF  C majorC
Don't read the last page
C majorC   A minorAm  FF
But I stay when you're lost, and I'm scared
          C majorC
And you're turning away
 A minorAm    FF
I want your midnights
C majorC             A minorAm         FF     C majorC
 But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day


Verse 2:
C majorC A minorAm FF                          C majorC A minorAm FF
   You squeeze my hand three times in the back of the taxi
                     C majorC A minorAm FF
I can tell that it's gonna be a long road
                          C majorC A minorAm FF
I'll be there if you're the toast of the town, babe
                       C majorC
Or if you strike out and you're crawling home


Chorus:
C majorC   A minorAm    FF
Don't read the last page
C majorC   A minorAm  FF
But I stay when it's hard, or it's wrong
          C majorC
Or we're making mistakes
 A minorAm  FF
I want your midnights
C majorC            A minorAm         FF     C majorC
But I'll be cleaning up bottles with you on New Year's Day

Bridge:
C majorC   A minorAm  FF       G+G
Please don't ever become a stranger

Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

Whose laugh I could recognize anywhere

You and me forevermore
