Decided to try if an even easier version would work. This sounds just about right,
but all corrections are greatly appreciated.
For the fun. version, play on capo 5. Might you want to belt along with the Glee
version (which isn't half bad, even I must admit), put your dear capo all the way up to 7.
Verse:
C
Give me a second I
I need to get my story straight
Am
My friends are in the bathroom
getting higher than the empire state
F
my lover she's waiting for me
just across the bar
Dm
My seats been taken by some sunglasses
G
asking 'bout a scar
C
and I know I gave it to you months ago
Am
I know you're trying to forget
F
but between the drinks and subtle things
the holes in my apologies
Dm G
you know I'm trying hard to take it back

F G
so if by the time the bar closes
C Am F
and you feel like falling down
F G
I'll carry you home
Chorus [x2]
C
Tonight
Am
We are young
F
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter
G
than the sun
Verse 2:
C
Now I know that I'm not
all that you got
Am
I guess that I

I just thought maybe we could find a ways to fall apart
But are friends in back
So let's raise a cup
Dm G
Cause I found someone to carry me home
Chorus [x2]
C
Tonight
Am
We are young
F
So let's set the world on fire
We can burn brighter

C F
Carry me home tonight
C G
Just carry me home tonight

[The world is on my side
I have no reason to run
So will someone come and carry me home tonight
The angels never arrived
but I can hear the choir
so will someone come and carry me home]

Tonight

than the sun

I'll carry you home
Nice! Much easier to sing and play this way. I do believe I'll be playing this version at my gig tonight. Thanks!
In hindsight, I believe Dm first, then F sounds more accurate in the verses. Still not sure about the pre-chorus part. Am to C there sounds slightly off. Hope your gig went well, Greg.
I think the start of the pre-chorus is A then B.
Also there should be a C between the F and the G in the chorus.
