[Verse 1]
      D5                            Bb5
Well, bartender's working on a late night shift
C5                                     D5
   Cheap bums and blondes and barmaids on a midnight drift
D5                                       Bb5
   And the dance band's playing the same old sling
C5                             D5
   I'm sinkin' whiskey and you're sippin' fine wine
D5                                         Bb5
   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                      Bb5
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                           Bb5
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                                 Bb5
   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                                     Bb5
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                            Bb5
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                               Bb5
   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                              Bb5
   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                              Bb5
  "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                           Bb5
   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
