Cm G# A (x3) 

C#5              C#6 
   My hand on your dress 
G5                    G6  
   you glance at your watch 
           F#1      F#2            F1                   C1 
as it's screaming reminders of the lack of sleep you'll get 
C#5            C#6       G5         G5           F#1         F#2         F1 
    I must confess, I'm scared to suggest what I feel out of fear you'll resist 

       F#m 
Well, come with me home  
E 
Don't be alone  
A                  Cm D#m Em F#3 Em D#m         
Say that you won't go     without me 
      F#m 
Cause they're closing up 
E                               A (hold) 
But there's still so much to be said  

F#m         A 
Maybe I'm dead 
Cm        B 
maybe I'm afraid of love 
F#m             A       Cm B 
but you could be just enough 
F#m               A 
I leave come the light 
Cm                 B            F#m 
so we have but the hours of the night 
A          Cm             B 
And thats alright, its alright 


Repeat intro 


C#5              C#6 
Your hands on my neck 
G5            G6 
its making my head rush 
F#1            F#2    
We discuss our breakups 
F1                   C1 
and resist the urge to kiss 
C#5              C#6      G5      G6 
   I've got good reason I fear to commit 
F#1            F#2          F1 
but maybe it's you that can fix it 

      F#m 
Well, come with me home  
E 
Don't be alone  
A                  Cm D#m Em F#3 Em D#m         
Say that you won't go     without me 
     F#m 
Cause they're closing up 
E                               Riff (or strum A) 
But there's still so much to be said
