G                        C                   G
Everybody seemed to have somebody better to talk to
G                                            C
Everybody seemed to have something better to do
                             D                     G
And I was trying to look so mean and dangerous and ended up stepping on her toe
    C                    D
And one minute she was a perfect stranger and the next thing she said was

I thought you ought to know

[Chorus]
                 C
I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
                  G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
                  D
You don't have to make me any promises
            Am         D
I can leave anytime I know
                             C
Even though I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
                  G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
                   D
You don't have to make me any promises
            Am  D      G
I can leave anytime I know

[Verse]
G                                    C                      G
As I was drinking she was making her selection over in the corner
G                                                        C
Still thinking about the dancing perfection out on the floor
                                  D                 G    D        G
I'd like to shake the hand of the man who started "slow dancing" time
    C                 D                    Am     D
And curse the crazy fool who dreamed up "closing time"

[Chorus]
                              C
Even though, I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
                  G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
                  D
You don't have to make me any promises
            Am         D
I can leave anytime I know
                              C
Even though, I don't wanna go home

Don't get any ideas
                  G
Things are going fine, then they all disappeared
                  D
You don't have to make me any promises
            Am         D
I can leave anytime I know
                            C G
Even though, I don't wanna go home
