It's four in the morning and the party's longsince over	G G+ C F
And we're the last ones on the dancefloor, on the dancefloor	G G+ C A
I know you're strung out and I'm feeling not all that sober	G G+ C F
But we still want a little more, a little more	G G+ C A
And that's why I'm staying	C D G

All of your friends, they're moving oh so fast	G G+ C F
And you're worried and you're threatened that you'll always be last	G G+ C A
I tell you that's life, and anyway you got more class	G G+ C F
And you gotta stop thinking 'bout everything that's gone passed	G G+ C A
And that's why I'm staying	C D G

If all the stars were falling 'bout your ankles	C D Em
I would lift them up to the skies	C D G
And if the sun was snuffed out early in the morning time	C D B Em D
I could see by the light of your eyes	C D
That's why I'm staying	C D G
That's why I'm staying	C D G

And you tell me you wished things had turned out better	G G+ C F
As we're walking out the door, out the door	G G+ C A
And you thank me for the gifts you said I should have kept them	G G+ C F
But you know I own the store, own the store	G G+ C A
And that's why I'm staying	C D G
That's why I'm staying	C D G

If all the stars were falling 'bout your ankles	C D Em
I would lift them up to the skies	C D G
And if the sun was snuffed out early in the morning time	C D B Em D
I could see by the light of your eyes	C D
That's why I'm staying	C D G
