No Capo
Key: D Major
[VERSE]
  DThere is a sun that I belAong to
  GThere hangs a light that comes and shDines upon you
  BmThey're of the warmth, they're of remAinders of youth
  Oh we Bmcan't stAay hGere
  DTake down the moon and all it's moAckery
  GThere is the Sun that takes awDay our money
  BmThe night is deafening and briAngs on defeat
  No we Bmcan't stAay hGere, no I Bmcan't stAay hGere
  No I Bmcan't stAay hGere
[CHORUS]
 GSomeone told me that I've rAun too far aBmway, awDay
 GSomeone told me I should jAust give in and sBmtay, and stDay
 Oh, cGome and celebrDate, we're dBmancing Aon the grGave
 Of the nGights we couldn't slAeep, oh I Bmcan't stAay hGere
[VERSE]
  DDon't steal away all of her beaAuty
  GTake down the darkness bruising bDoth of your knees
  BmIt better overwhelm the heAart with the heat
  Oh I Bmcan't stAay hGere, no we Bmcan't stAay hGere
  No I Bmcan't stAay hGere
[CHORUS]
 GSomeone hold me as I tAurn the night aBmway, awDay
 GSomeone hold me to the Aultraviolet Bmray, rDay
 Oh, cGome and celebrDate, we're dBmancing Aon your grGave
 Of the nGights we couldn't slAeep, oh I Bmcan't stAay hGere
 No, I Bmcan't stAay hGere, no, I Bmcan't stAay hGere
