Intro:  Am F G 
  

Am Am/G     Am Am/G   F    C G 
   Take me out tonight 
  
              Am                Am/G 
where there's music and there's people 
  
        Am        Am/G F  C G 
who are young and alive 
  

Am      Am/G       Am  Am/G 
Driving in your car 
  
  F                      C 
I never never want to go home 
  
G                 Am      Am/G Am Am/G 
because I haven't got one 
  
   F    C G 
anymore 
  

Am Am/G       Am Am/G   F    C G 
   Take me out tonight 
  
          Am          Am/G 
because I want to see people and I 
  
Am          Am/G      F C G 
want to see lights 
  

Am      Am/G       Am  Am/G 
Driving in your car 
  
   F                    C 
oh please don't drop me home 
  
G                Am            Am/G 
because it's not my home, it's their 
  
              Am         Am/G     F C G 
home, and I'm welcome no more 
  

Chorus: 
  
  Am F G 
  
          C             Am 
  And if a double-decker bus 
  
  F               G 
  crashes into us 
  
            C 
  to die by your side 
  
         F               G 
  such a heavenly way to die 
  

           C         Am 
  And if a ten ton truck 
  
  F                    G 
  kills the both of us 
  
            C 
  to die by your side 
  
      F                         G 
  the pleasure the privilege is mine 
  

Am Am/G       Am Am/G   F    C G 
   Take me out tonight 
  
           Am                Am/G    Am Am/G F C G 
oh take me anywhere, I don't care 
  

           Am       Am/G    Am 
And in the darkened underpass 
  
  Am/G          F                               C G 
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last 
  
            Am           Am/G 
(but then a strange fear gripped me and I 
  
Am            Am/G    F C G 
just couldn't ask) 
  

Am Am/G       Am Am/G   F    C G 
   Take me out tonight 
  
        Am                Am/G    Am Am/G F C G 
take me anywhere, I don't care 
  

     Am      Am/G       Am  Am/G 
Just driving in your car 
  
  F                      C 
I never never want to go home 
  
G                 Am      Am/G Am Am/G 
because I haven't got one 
  
          F       C G 
I haven't got one 
  

Chorus 
  

Am         Am/G            Am         Am/G 
There is a light and it never goes out 
  
F                       C          G 
There is a light and it never goes out
