[Intro]
Bb Dm C F Bb Dm C
[Verse 1]
Bb Dm C F
It's closin' time and they're stackin' up chairs
Bb Dm C
As the band tears down under neon light
Bb Dm C F
Another party's over, and I'm a far cry from sober
Bb Dm C
And a far cry from over you
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb Dm
Oh, so I'm on my way, on my way
C F Bb
On my way, on my way
Dm C
To the after party
Bb Dm
And with you by my side
C F
It's a beautiful ride
Bb Dm C
So ride with me, ride with me, ride
[Chorus]
Bb Dm
And lead me to the after party
C F
It's too late now to go home
Bb Dm C
So shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
They're livin' it up at the after party
C F
Wherever it is, we're goin'
Bb Dm C
Shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
And lead me to the after party
C F Bb Dm C
[Verse 2]
Bb Dm
Oh, I hear the king is still alive
C F
He's windin' up Mulholland drive
Bb Dm C
And he will arrive sooner than we think
Bb Dm
And Marilyn is flyin' in
C F
While Ray and John are singin' hymns
Bb Dm C
Have you been slippin' somethin' in my drink?
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb Dm
Oh, so I'm on my way, on my way
C F Bb
On my way, on my way
Dm C
To the after party
Bb Dm
And with you by my side
C F
It's a beautiful ride
Bb Dm C
So ride with me, ride with me, ride
[Chorus]
Bb Dm
And lead me to the after party
C F
It's too late now to go home
Bb Dm C
So shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
They're livin' it up at the after party
C F
Wherever it is, we're goin'
Bb Dm C
Shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
And lead me to the after party
C F Bb Dm C
Bb Dm
Lead me to the after party
C F Bb Dm C
[Bridge]
Bb Dm C F
It's closin' time, still a far cry from sober
Bb Dm C
Still a far cry from over you
[Chorus]
Bb Dm
So lead me to the after party
C F
It's too late now to go home
Bb Dm C
So shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
They're livin' it up at the after party
C F
Wherever it is, we're goin'
Bb Dm C
Shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm
And lead me to the after party
C F
It's too late now to go home
Bb Dm C
So shine a light, shine a light, shine a light
Bb Dm C
And lead me to the after party
F Bb Dm C
Lead me to the after party
[Outro]
Bb Dm C
Livin' it up, livin' it up, livin' it up
F Bb Dm C
Lead me to the after party
