E                                                       *
The world is waiting in the drive, another day begins
                                                        *
We wake up barely half alive, here we go again
A
We pay our bills and we don't complain

We just drive faster in the carpool lane
                          F#m
Are we in love or are we insane
      E                 C#m
Baby, give me tonight, you're still the one
A                   B
Light up the stars, blow out the sun
E                           C#m 
Chase that old moon till he gives up the fight
A   B             E  *
Oh, give me tonight
E                                                    *
A picture's hanging on the wall from our wedding day
                                                     *
Well, you and me we had a ball, nothing in our way
A
You gave me love and a diamond ring

We bought a house and an old porch swing
                                     F#m
Well now baby, there's just one more thing
E                C#m
Give me tonight, you're still the one
A                   B
Light up the stars, blow out the sun
E                           C#m
Chase that old moon till he gives up the fight
A    B            E *
Oh, give me tonight
C#m           F#                  A   E
This mean old world won't seem so crazy
C#m        F#               A B
If I could hear you call me baby

SOLO

E   C#m  A    B   
Baby
    E                C#m
Oh, give me tonight, you're still the one
A                   B
Light up the stars, blow out the sun
E                           C#m
Chase that old moon till he gives up the fight
A   B             E 
Oh, give me tonight
C#m           A      B
Baby, give me tonight
        E    C#m   A   B    E
Give me tonight
