F#
Five drinks in a Friday night
We only came to dry your eyes
D#m          B           F# C# F#
And get you out of your room
F#
Now this bar has closed its doors
I found my hand's holding yours
D#m              B       F#
Do you wanna go home so soon?

                           B                F#
Or maybe we should take a ride through the night
          C#             D#m                 B
And sing along to every song that's on the radio
F#                  C#
In the back of the taxi cab in Brooklyn, oh, no, no
B        F#          C#                   D#m
Sun can rise burning all the street lamps out 3 AM,
B     F#         C#
so C#J, play it again

Chorus
           F#         B     D#m
Until the night turns into morning
 C#             F#
You'll be in my arms
           B          D#m
And we'll just keep driving
  C#            F#
Along the boulevard
          B          D#m
And if I kissed you darling
  C#
Please don't be alarmed
B               C#
It's just the start of everything if you want
F#
A new love, in New York

Yesterday gave me a call
Stressing out about it all
Said the world is moving too fast
And you don't know where to begin
'Cause you've spent a lifetime fitting in
Only to wind up on the other side

By yourself
And every day
Screaming out
To all the people that you used to know
From a window that looks upon Manhattan skyline
It's just the way that life goes
And you hear it in every song you know
So, DJ, play it again

Chorus

           B          F#
And every song that plays
     C#             D#m
It's just like the day you had
    B     F#
And it's okay to cry
    C#          D#m            B        F#
But I'm saying maybe that's a waste of water
         C#       D#m
You know I'm here for you
B                             C#
In the back of the taxi cab tonight

Chorus
