Intro: A  Asus2 | A  Asus4 | A  Asus2 | A  Asus4 | 
 
Verse 
 
A 
I know the girls from there grow up fast where you come from 
                                                                  D 
You left behind what was asked, and you were married, baby, oh so young 
                                                               E 
Now that little girl of yours looks like she?s growing up overnight 
 
 
                F#m 
Do you miss the party lights? 
                A 
Do you miss the party lights? 
                D 
Do you miss the party lights, 
            E        A 
When you?re lying in bed at night? 
 
Verse 
A 
He was gonna be your Romeo, you were gonna be his Juliet 
                                                                  D 
These days you don?t wait on Romeos you just wait on that welfare check 
                                                             E 
While other girls your age are out with lovers taking in the night 
 
 
                F#m 
Do you miss the party lights? 
                A 
Do you miss the party lights? 
                D 
Do you miss the party lights, 
            E        A 
When you?re lying in bed at night?  
 
Bridge 
            G                    
Sometimes I see you on the street and you look so tired 
            A                        D 
I know that job you got leaves you so uninspired 
G 
When I stop by to take you out to eat 
           E                  D                       E 
I find you lying, all dressed up, on the bed and baby fast asleep 
 
Solo: A |  |  |  |  |  | D |  | 
 
 
D                                                             E 
And as I leaned across the bed, darling, and switched out the light 
                           F#m 
I wondered if you miss the party lights? 
                A 
Do you miss the party lights? 
                D 
Do you miss the party lights 
            E        A              F# 
When you?re lying in bed at night 
 
Verse 
               B 
Well grab your coat and grab your hat, go in the bathroom, put your makeup on 
                                                                    E 
We?re gonna take that little brat, we?re gonna drop her off at your mom?s 
                                               F# 
Just give me a sign, I?m waitin? on the line tonight 
 
 
                G#m 
If you miss the party lights 
                B 
If you miss the party lights 
                E 
If you miss the party lights 
            F#       G#m 
When you?re lying in bed at night 
                E 
Do you miss the party lights 
            F#       E 
When you?re lying in bed at night? 
                B                             E 
Do you miss the party lights? Do you miss the party lights?  
                B                             E 
Do you miss the party lights? Do you miss the party lights?  
                B                             E 
Do you miss the party lights? Do you miss the party lights?
