[F]
[C] When the day is short [F] [C] and the nights [F] are long
It's a different [F] world where the rules are wrong
[C] And I will go home with [F] you
Whoever [G] is sure, are you sure?
[C] And I don't care if [F] you, if you love me [Dm] tomorrow, [C] why?
Love me tonight and [F] I, I will be alright
I'll be
[G] alright, I'll be alright
Until tomorrow [C] night
And it's oh so long, [F] I'm sure
Meet your friends at [Dm] the bar [C] and
Is that who those people [F] are?
They, they seem so very [G] old
Ah, they seem so far
Is that who they [C] are?
And on the jukebox [F] is your
Is your only song in [C] our hearts
I'd never remember the [F] words
Now I've waited, waited [G] too long
I've waited too [G] long
Our love is gone
No more sober with the blood
No more walks in the parking lot
No more sweet and shy
No [E] [G] more foolish lovers in the dark
No more believe no more
But it was fun when we saw a [C] spark
When the day is short [F] and the nights are [C] long
It's a different [F] world where the rules are [C] wrong
[F]
I'll be [G] alright, I'll be alright
[C]
I'll be alright, [F]
[C]
I'll be alright
