Em7        G             D/F# 
Hey sweetie, I need you here tonight 
      Em7                   
And I know that you don't wanna be leaving 
G 
Yeah, you want it but I can't help it 
D/F#                                 Em7 
I just feel complete when you're by my side 
C9                        G                     D/F# 
But I know you can't come home 'til they're singin' 
 
C9      D/F#    Em7 
La, la la la, la la la 
     G           
'Til everyone is singin' 
C9              D/F# 
La, la la la, la la la 
 
G                   D/F# 
If you can wait 'til I get home 
       Em7                                C9 
Then I swear to you that we can make this last 
          G 
(La la la) 
G                   D/F# 
If you can wait 'til I get home 
       Em7                                           C9 
Then I swear come tomorrow, this will all be in our past 
G             D/F#     
It might be for the best 
 
  C9                              G 
You know you can't give me what I need 
                                   Em7 
And even though you mean so much to me 
                   D/F# 
I can wait through everything 
   
Is this really happening? 
 
   C9                       G 
I swear I'll never be happy again 
                                     Em7 
And don't you dare say we can just be friends 
                            D/F# 
I'm not some boy that you can sway 
            C/G 
We knew it'd happen eventually 
 
C9     D/F#    Em7 
La, la la la, la la la 
     G  
Now everybody's singin' 
C9      D/F#    Em7 
La, la la la, la la la 
G 
Now everybody's singin'
