C#m  B       C#m B     A       E B 
     take me out    tonight      
                C#m              B 
 where there's music and there's people 
          C#m        B     A       E B 
 who are young and alive, 
   C#m   B       C#m   B 
 driving in your car 
     A                          E B 
 I never never want to go home 
                   C#m     B       C#m B     A       E B 
 because I haven't got one,               anymore 

C#m  B       C#m B     A       E B 
     take me out    tonight 
           C#m         B            C#m            B       A     E B 
 because I want to see people and I want to see li...ght, 
   C#m   B       C#m B 
 driving in your car 
     A                         E B 
 oh please don't drop me home 
                  C#m           B 
 because it's not my home, it's their home 
            C#m     B     A       E B 
 and I'm welcome no more 

(F#      A   B) 

         E             C#m     A 
and if a double-decker bus    crashes into us 
B              E                    A               F# 
     to die by your side, is such a heavenly way to die 
         E         C#m     A 
and if a ten-tonne truck   kills the both of us 
B              E 
     to die by your side 
          A                         F# 
well the pleasure, the privilege is mine 

take me out tonight 
oh take me anywhere, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care 
and in the darkened underpass I thought "oh god, 
my chance has come at last" 
but then a strange fear gripped me and I just couldn't ask 

take me out tonight 
Oh, take anywhere, I don't care, I don't care, I don't care 
driving in your car 
I never, never want to go home 
because I haven't got one, 
no I haven't got one. 

there is a light that never goes out...
