Strum
D-DU-UDU
Well  the red light fades and the Sun won't shine
 Try to chase those ghosts from those ghosts, from this heart of mine
 And the red  town lady said she'd save me cry
Take  me down where the people  carry roses
Take  me down where the street  signs know me inside  out
Well  the cheap red wine is the kind I love the best
 Makes the days pass by and a magical mess
 And the red  town lady, makes my soul confess
Take  me down with your money  and your roses
Take  me down where the night  comes crashing through the window
look  out boy, take a back seat and make them enjoy
 The sound, this hopeless mess
 Spend their money, watch them undress their soul,
 And a furious fire, round the drink and smoke out of line
 And leave, in a jealous hurricane
They  won't forget your name
Carry  me home, carry me home carry me
 Won't somebody chase this pain  from my door?
Carry  me home, carry me home, carry me
 Won't somebody chase this pain  from my window?
Carry  me home, carry me home, carry me
 Won't somebody chase this pain  from my door?
Carry  me home, carry me home, carry me
 Won't somebody chase this pain  from my window?
Carry  me home, carry me home, carry me
 Won't somebody take this pain  from my door?
