[Intro]
C F Am G
…………
[Verse 1]
C
When I wake up will I be okay?
Will tomorrow have a price to pay?
F
Just on that note, will it be too late?
Am G
‘Cause I’ve been here before
C
It’s a nightmare, but I can’t resist
Opportunities that can’t be missed
F
I’m afraid of what might have been
Am G F
If I’d just stayed at home all alone
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Now I’m looking up at the sky
And I’m wondering why
[Chorus]
C
I fall for it every time
F
Was all for an early night
Am
But I don’t seem to know
G C
When it’s time to Go home, wooh!
[Verse 2]
C
When wake up will be afraid?
Will I cancel all those plans we made?
F
It’s a shame when your mind’s in space
Am G
And your phone’s somewhere in town
C
It’s a nightmare when it comes to this
But a lad at the jukebox queued up Smiths
F
So I’ll wait just to see if he’s got good taste
Am G F
And queue four of my own and walk it home
[Pre-Chorus]
G
Now I’m looking up at the sky
I’m still wondering why
[Chorus]
C
I fall for it every time
F
I was all for an early night
Am
But I don’t seem to know
G C
When it’s time to Go home
I fall for it every time
F
The more I drink the less I find
Am
That I’lI know when to go
G
When it’s time to Go home
[Bridge]
Dm Am G
Forget the world outside your window
Dm Am G
’Cause you won’t see the rest of the day
Dm Am G
God help me please ’cause I’m in need of someone to bring me from my knees
F
And I’ll make the best of whatever’s left of this day
G C
Then promise myself I won’t Do it again
[Pre-Chorus]
And I fall for it every time
F
The morning rain clouds in my mind
They just won’t fade
Am G
Until I learn to walk away
[Chorus]
C
I fall for it every time
F
I was all for an early night
Am
But I don’t seem to know
G C
When it’s time to Go home
I fall for it every time
F
The more I drink the less I find
Am
That I’lI know when to go
G C
When it’s time to Go home
[Outro]
F Am G C
