  			    C                            G 
Oh with strangers to impress so near 
    C                     G 
Old friends don't realize I'm here 
   C                              G 
I wish two drinks where always in me 
   C          G               Am 
I'd pretend I had the perfect day 

C              G 
Take me to the water 
Am            F 
Make me understand 
           C     G 
That I was wrong 

    C                  G 
For me tomorrow is my first day 
   C      G                     Am 
So please don't tempt me in the wrong way 

C                 G 
It's almost after midnight 
Am            F               C     G 
I can see the city lights, we're here. 

Am          F       Dm 
Change your mind tonight 
C                 G 
You belong to the city now 
            Am    F    Dm 
and you're closer now, I know 
C                 G 
You belong on the radio 

  C                         G 
I swear I'll give it back tomorrow 
        C      G                    Am 
But for now I think that I'll just borrow 

C                   G 
All the chords from that song 
    Am                      F            C 
And all the words from that other song I heard 
  G  
Yesterday 

Am          F       Dm 
Change your mind tonight 
C                 G 
You belong to the city now 
            Am    F    Dm 
and you're closer now, I know 
C                 G 
You belong on the radio 

C              G 
I will not disturb you 
      Am             F           C     G 
I was just returning you a compliment
