[Chorus 1] (N.C.) D I don't wanna go home, G Don't bring the lights up, A don't ring the bell. D Once the whistle has blown, G A God only knows when we'll meet here again. [Bridge 1] Bm A Tell the band not to stop, G D Tell the curtain, don't drop, G Keep the bar stool King, A High on his throne! [Chorus 2] I don't wanna go Home, Don't wanna leave till it's all said and done. Guess I should have known, I'd want to stay until we'd seen the sun. [Bridge 2] Bm A It's just the moment to make.. G D This perfect mistake. G A Until we spend hours alone. G A D I don't want to go home. G D It's a matter of fact.. G D You can never look back, G A It's a lesson that some never learn. G D But I won't forget it. G D I won't be caught treading, G A On the bridges that I myself burned -KEY CHANGES FROM D TO E- [Instrumental] (x2) E , A , B [Bridge 3] A E It's a matter of fact, A E You can never look back, A B It's a lesson that some never learn. A E But I won't forget it. A E I won't be caught treading, A B On the bridges that I myself burned. [Chorus 3] E I don't wanna go home, A I've been gone forever, B I don't wanna face, E All the punches I've thrown, A B And all the wounded who fueled my escape. [Bridge 4] Tell the band not to stop, Tell the curtain, don't drop, Keep the bar stool King, High on his throne! 'Cause somewhere in the dark There's a well-broken heart, Who's willing to cast the first stone. [Outro] ( E , A , B ) I don't want to go home (x6)
