[Intro]
C Em F G Am Em F

[Verse 1]
        C                 
Didn't even wanna go out, 
 Em        F
why'd you call me?
I've had a long day and 
       G    Am
still got laundry
Two, three, four, 
         Em    F
make me drink more
N.C.
Then you walk through the door
          C        
All my friends are 
            Em        F
buying blow in the bathroom
There's people climbing up the 
        G                  Am
wall 'cause it's a packed house
"Who are you? 
                  Em  F
What's your name?" I ask
N.C.
Surprised she answered fast

[Pre-Chorus]
          Am         Em    F
I think there's too many random 
bodies dancing near us
      Am            
If three's a crowd, 
 Em         F
what would you call this?

[Chorus]
      C
Yeah
          Em   F
We should go somewhere
            G        Am
You choose, I don't care
            Em           F
As long as you're right here
N.C.
Stay next to me
      C
Yеah
          Em   F
We can barely stand
                    G       Am
And we both don't know this band
                 Em      F
I'll movе, just hold my hand
N.C.
Stay next to me

C Em F G Am Em F

[Verse 2]
        C          
The cigarettes and 
         Em      F
the burn of your whiskey
I can taste on my 
             G   Am
tongue when you kiss me
                        Em  F
Down your drink faster than me
N.C.
You ask if you can see
       C       
My bedroom and 
               Em     F
the place that I grew up
My life goals and 
               G       Am
the times that I threw up
                        Em  F
Said you're down to take a ride
N.C.
So let's grab a cab in five

[Pre-Chorus]
          Am         Em    F
I think there's too many random 
bodies dancing near us
      Am            
If three's a crowd, 
 Em         F
what would you call this?

[Bridge]
  C
Time is standing still
                   Em
Throw a couple twenties 
on the bill
                      Am     
I can't waste another second 
                       Am
here, how 'bout you?
          C
We're turning down your street
                     Em
And you've got your hands 
all over me
                          Am  
There's no place on Earth I'd 
rather be than with you 
   Am
(With you, yeah)

[Chorus]
      C
Yeah
          Em   F
We should go somewhere

As long as you're right here

Yeah
          Em   F
We should go somewhere 
(We should go somewhere)

You choose, I don't care 
(Don't care)
             Em          F
As long as you're right here 
(As long as you're right here)
N.C.
Stay next to me (Next to me)
      C
Yeah (Yeah)
         Em    F
We can barely stand
                   G        Am
