Intro: D 


Verse 1:
 
            D                 G                  A 
Through the doldrum roar, the great northeastern lines 
        D                A         D 
Coupled carriage ticking light, my metronome 
          D                 G                A 
I see the housing glow, the skyline of cheap gold 
    D               A                      D 
And crooked teeth I will call home for the day or so 



    D                   A 
You can't carry me away now 
             G                A 
Please don't steal me from my house 
    D                   A 
You can't carry me away now 
     G                 A 
I've just laid my head down 
    D                   A 
You can't carry me away now 
       G                      A 
Please don't steal me from my house 
    D 
You can't carry me 
      A                D 
Don't steal me from my house 




Verse 2: use verse 1 chords
 
Inside the housing glow 
I stiffen my tired shoes 
With the starch of family food 
Oh, I've missed you so 


Chorus 2: use chorus 1 chords
 
You can't carry me away now 
Please don't steal me from my house 
You can't carry me away now 
I've just laid my head down 
You can't carry me away now 
Please don't steal me from my house 
You can't carry me 
Don't steal me from my house
