Capo on 4th fret
              3AM by AJR 
 
 
 
verse 1 
 
C           Dm         Em                  F 
The coldest train car, three o' clock at dark 
 
C                      F 
Remember alcohol and dancing? 
 
C               Dm                         Em              F 
Our friends are gone now, 'cause she chose me to take her home 
 
C                           F 
I guess that's all I ever wanted 
 
 
 
Dm             G 
I just can't believe 
 
     C                    F 
That you chose a guy like me 
 
G          F        C   F                   C 
No matter where you go, I will go down that road 
 
G                      F     C                 F 
The one that takes you home, after the party's done 
 
Dm                        C 
And all is well, but I'm scared as hell 
 
     F                         Am 
That you won't like me in the morning 
 
F                     G 
Bet you won't like me, the way that I like you 
 
 
verse 2 
 
C           Dm         Em            F 
The coldest train car, chilly Friday night 
 
C                           F 
Hope she holds on to what I told her 
 
C          Dm       Em             F 
The boys around her take a second look 
 
C                                  F 
She made her choice, the night is over 
 
 
 
Dm             G 
I just can't believe 
 
     C                    F 
That you chose a guy like me 
 
G          F        C   F                   C 
No matter where you go, I will go down that road 
 
G                      F     C                 F 
The one that takes you home, after the party's done 
 
Dm                        C 
And all is well, but I'm scared as hell 
 
     F                         Am 
That you won't like me in the morning 
 
F                     G 
Bet you won't like me, the way that I like you

F Dm Am 
 
F                   G           Am 
That you won't like me in the morning 
 
  F                   G 
I know you'll like me, the way that I like you
