[Intro]
Dm  Bb   Dm    C  Dm Bb
 
[Verse 1]
                                     Dm C
You know I find it hard to sleep when
                       F  Bb
I'm sleeping by myself
                                Dm C
And I'm lying in the spare room
                                    Dm Bb
Thinking I should be somewhere else
                                       Dm C
Cause you know when weve been drinking
                          F  Bb
We can sabotage ourselves
 
Like smashing up the kitchen
Dm                       C
Now there’s nothing that seems to help
 
[Chorus 1]
Bb                              C
Now I don’t want to wake you up
                               Dm
Tell you that I'm leaving town
                           F
I already packed my stuff
        C         Bb
Can't go back now
                C
But the way you look
                       Dm
Brings me straight back down
                F                 Bb   C
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb   C
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb
I don’t want to wake you up right now
 
[Verse 2]
                                Dm C
You're breaking out the windows
                                   F  Bb
While I was tearing down the doors
                                Dm C
Now I'm picking up the ash tray
                                Dm Bb
That you threw against the wall
                                             Dm
Just we take and we take just a little more
       C                               Dm Bb
I have no idea what we’re fighting for
                                                    Dm
Now I’m standing right here right outside your door
      C                  Bb
Now I know... Now I know
 
[Chorus 2]
                               C
Now I don’t want to wake you up
                               Dm
Tell you that I'm leaving town
                          F
I already packed my stuff
        C         Bb
Can't go back now
                C
But the way you look
                       Dm
Brings me straight back down
               F                  Bb   C
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb  C
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F            Bb
I don’t want to wake you up
 
[Bridge]
                              Dm
Cause I’m can't live with you
                           C
I can't live without you
                  C
You feel like home
                   Bb
You feel like home
                              Dm
Cause I’m can't live with you
                           C
I can't live without you
                  C
You feel like home
                   Bb
You feel like home
 
[Chorus 3]
                           C
I don’t want to wake you up
                              Dm
Tell you that I'm leaving town
                          F
I already packed my stuff
        C         Bb
Can't go back now
                C
But the way you look
                       Dm
Brings me straight back down
                F                 Bb  C
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb
I don’t want to wake you up right now 
                                                     C
(I can't live with you, I can't live without you)
              Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb
I don’t want to wake you up right now 
                                                      C
(I can't live with you, I can't live without you)
            Dm
I was ready to go, ready to go
               F                  Bb
I don’t want to wake you up right now
              You know I find it hard to sleep when
I'm sleeping by myself
And now I'm lying in a spare room
Thinking I should be somewhere else
You should know when we've been drinking
We can sabotage ourselves
Like smashing up the kitchen
No, there's nothing that seems to help

And I don't want to wake you up
Tell you that I'm leaving town
I already packed my stuff
Can't go back now
But the way you look brings me straight back down
I don't want to wake you up right now

I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now
I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now

You're breaking out the windows
Well, I was tearing down the doors
And now I'm picking up the ashtray
That you threw against the wall
'Cause we take, and we take just a little more
I have no idea what we're fighting for
No we're standing right here outside your door
Now I know, now I know

And I don't want to wake you up
Tell you that I'm leaving town
I already packed my stuff
Can't go back now
But the way you look brings me straight back down
I don't want to wake you up right now

I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now
I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now

'Cause I called it with you, I called it without you
You feel like home, you feel like home
'Cause I called it with you, I called it without you
You feel like home, you feel like home

And I don't want to wake you up
Tell you that I'm leaving town
I already packed my stuff
Can't go back now
But the way you look brings me straight back down
I don't want to wake you up right now

I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now
(Called it with you, I called it without you)
I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now
(Called it with you, I called it without you)
I was ready to go, ready to go
I don't want to wake you up right now
