Would you care to stay till Sunday?
[Db] It's gonna be a [Ab] decision
It's just that going home is such [Eb] a ride, such a ride
Going home is such a ride, going home is such a ride
Isn't going home a low [Ab] and lonely ride?
Would you hang your denim jacket [Db] where the person by [Ab] Picasso?
Do you sleep on the left side [Eb] or the right, or the right?
Would you mind if I [Ab] leave on the [Bb] light?
Would you [Eb] mind if it isn't [Ab] too bright?
Now I need the window open, so if you [Ab] happen to get chilly
There's this coverlet my cousin hand [Eb]-crocheted, hand-crocheted
Do you mind if the edge is afraid?
Would [Eb] you like to unfasten [Ab] my braid?
Now [Fm] I can make you in the morning [C] a cup of homemade coffee
I will sweeten it with honey and [Fm] with cream
When [Bb] you sleep, do [Fm] you have dreams?
You can read the early paper, [C] and I can watch you while you shave
Oh God, the mirror's cracked
[Bb] When you leave, [Fm] will you come back?
You don't have to answer that at all
[C] The bathroom door is just across the hall
You'll find an extra towel on the rack
[Bb] On the paisley [Fm] patterned paper wall
[C] There's a comb on the shelf
I [Fm] papered that wall myself, [Eb] that wall myself
[Ab] Would you care to stay till sunrise?
[Db] It's not completely your [Ab] decision
It's just the night cuts [Ab] through me [Eb] like a knife, like a knife
Would you care to stay [Ab] a while and save my life?
Would you [Eb] care to stay a while and save my life?
I [Fm] don't know what made me say that
I [C] got this phony sense of humor
You know I could not be downhearted
If [Fm] I tried, if [Eb] I tried
It's just that going home [Ab] is such a ride
[Db] Going home is such a ride
[Ab] Going home is such a ride
Isn't going home a low and lonely ride?
Isn't going home a low and lonely ride?
[Eb] Isn't going home a low and lonely ride?
[Db] [Ab] [N]
