Am F G
Am G Am G F C G
Take me out tonight
Am G
where there's music and there's people
Am G F C G
who are young and alive
Am G Am G
Driving in your car

I never never want to go home
G Am G Am G
because I haven't got one

because I want to see people and I
Am G F C G
want to see lights
Am G Am G
Driving in your car

because it's not my home, it's their

home, and I'm welcome no more
Chorus:
Em F
G C Am
And if a double-decker bus
F G
crashes into us
C
to die by your side
F G
such a heavenly way to die
C Am
And if a ten ton truck
F G
kills the both of us
C
to die by your side
F G
the pleasure the privilege is mine
Am G Am G F C G
Take me out tonight
Am G Am G F C G
oh take me anywhere, I don't care
Am G Am
And in the darkened underpass
G F C G
I thought Oh God, my chance has come at last
Am G
(but then a strange fear gripped me and I
Am G F C G
just couldn't ask)
Am G Am G F C G
Take me out tonight
Am G Am G F C G
take me anywhere, I don't care
Am G Am G
Just driving in your car

G Am G Am G
because I haven't got one
F C G
I haven't got one
Chorus
Em F
G C Am
And if a double-decker bus
F G
crashes into us
C
to die by your side
F G
such a heavenly way to die
C Am
And if a ten ton truck
F G
kills the both of us
C
to die by your side
F G
the pleasure the privilege is mine
Am G Am G
There is a light and it never goes out
F C G
There is a light and it never goes out

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official THE SMITHS tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
