[Verse 1]
D5 A#5
Well, bartender's working on a late night shift
C5 D5
Cheap bums and blondes and barmaids on a midnight drift
D5 A#5
And the dance band's playing the same old sling
C5 D5
I'm sinkin' whiskey and you're sippin' fine wine
D5 A#5
I don't know what it is you're trying to prove
C5 D5
Well, it should be you, but it's me who can hardly move
D5 A#5
And I've got my reputation lyin' on the line
C5 D5
Come on baby, be a good dog and, and help the blind
[Chorus 1]
G5
Oh, won't you carry me home?
D5
Oh, to carry me home
G5
Oh, to carry me home
A5
Like a truck, pick me up
[Verse 2]
D5 A#5
You ain't no lady, but you sure got taste in men
C5 D5
That head of yours has got you by, time and time again
D5 A#5
My arms and legs are achin' and my head's about to blow
C5 D5
And your back's been breakin' and I'd hate to spoil the show
D5 A#5
But I just spent next week's wages and I'm right out of coin
C5 D5
But you want more and it's half past four, and they want to close the joint
D5 A#5
And we can't afford a taxi, and it's too late for the bus
C5 D5
But I've been told by friends of mine you're someone I can trust
[Chorus 2]
G5
Carry me home
D5
Oh, won't you carry me home
G5
Carry me home
A5
Don't leave me lying here, in all this beer!

[Verse 3]
D5 A#5
You drank all your booze and half of mine
C5 D5
I'm bleary eyed and you're waiting for the sunshine to come and kill me
D5 A#5
Just like the man who threw me on the floor
C5 D5
Don't matter, while I'm down here I might as well try and find the back end door
D5 A#5
"Excuse me, have you seen it?" "It's about this big"
C5 D5
"And have you got a plastic bag 'cause I'm gonna be sick"
D5 A#5
I'm dead drunk and heavin', hangin' upside down
C5 N.C.
And you're gettin' up and leavin', you think I'm gonna drown
[Chorus 3]
G5
Carry me home
D5
Oh, won't you carry me home
G5 A5
Carry me home
G5
Carry me home
D5
Oh, won't you carry me home
G5 A5
Carry me home
