So I'm really bad at bar chords and many of the tabs here include bar chords for this
song. So I wanted to tab a way to play it without bar chords. Also, this song takes a bit
of explaining which is hard to do over just txt, so bare with me here.
Capo on 3
The intro to this song is somewhat tricky

Repeat both of these after playing them once. So you'll play the top part twice, then
the bottom part once, then the top part twice and the bottom part once, and thats your intro.
Start Strumming with Em
And hey darling
I hope you're good tonight
And I know you don't feel right when I'm leaving
Yeah I want it but no I don't need it
Tell me something sweet to get me by
'Cause I can't come back home till they're singing
La, la la la la la la <----- here, strum each chord only once
'Til everyone is singing <---- go back to strumming
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear to you
That we can make this last
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear come tomorrow
This will all be in our past
Well it might be for the best

Play this whole thing only once this time
And hey sweetie
Well I need you here tonight
And I know that you don't want to be leaving me
Yeah you want it but I can't help it
I just feel complete when you're by my side
But I know you can't come home 'til they're singing
La, la la la la la la <--------strum once for each chord
'Til everyone is singing <--------strum throughout this line
La, la la la la la la <------- again strum only once
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear to you
That we can make this last
(La la la)
If you can wait till I get home
Then I swear come tomorrow
This will all be in our past
Well it might be for the best
You know you can't give me what I need
And even though you mean so much to me
I can't wait through everything
Is this really happening?
I swear I'll never be happy again
And don't you dare say we can just be friends
I'm not some boy that you can sway
We knew it'd happen eventually
La, la la la la la la
Now Everybody's singing
La, la la la la la la
G, Cadd9, D, Em <----- repeat twice (strumming)
Cadd9, D, Em, G <------ repeat twice with only strumming once and letting it ring
