GBaby quit your dancing sDhoes
DThe Strip is fun, but it aint Ahome
AI think I know what you Gneed
GA little less neon, a little more Dme to hold you cAlose
[Chorus]
DDance away my cares to Anight take me back in Gtime

ABefore the lights became our Glives
GIt aint bad, but baby somDetimes, I need you to hAope
[Chorus] x2
GNow I stare out at the Dbay
DThe humid air pushing salty Awaves
AWhile you watch the desert sGun
GSinking low waiting for soDmeone to take you Aaway
