Chords

[Verse 1]

E
Give me a second I

I need to get my story straight

    C#m
My friends are in the bathroom

getting higher than the empire state

     A
my lover she's waiting for me

just across the bar

              B
My seats been taken by some sunglasses

asking 'bout a scar

      E
and I know I gave it to you months ago

I know you're trying to forget

      C#m
but between the drinks and subtle things

the holes in my apologies

              A                      B
you know I'm trying hard to take it back

            C#m             B
So if by the time the bar closes

       B         E        A
and you feel like falling down

    A          B     E
I'll carry you home tonight

[Hook]

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

                           A
So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

        B
than the sun

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

                           A
So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

        B
than the sun

[Verse 2]

E
Now I know that I'm not

all that you got

C#m
I guess that I

I just thought maybe we could find a ways to fall apart

A
But are friends in back

So let's raise a cup

B
Cause I found someone to carry me home

[Hook]

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

                           A

        B
than the sun

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

                           A
So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

        B
than the sun

[Interlude]

E               A
Carry me home tonight

E                        B
Just carry me home tonight

E                A
Carry me home tonight

E                        B
Just carry me home tonight

[Bridge]

E                     
The moon is on my side

A
I have no reason to run

E                       B                E
So will someone come and carry me home tonight

                     A
The angels never arrived

                   E
but I can hear the choir

                          B
so will someone come and carry me home

[Hook]

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

        B
than the sun

E
Tonight

        C#m
We are young

                           A
So let's set the world on fire

We can burn brighter

        B
than the sun

[Outro]

            C#m             B

       B         E        A
and you feel like falling down

    A          B     E
I'll carry you home tonight
