[Intro]
|Em G    |D  C    |

[Verse 1]
    Em              G                         D       C
I'm packin' my bags that I didn't unpack the last time
             Em               G                            D      C
I'm sayin' "see you again" so many times it's becomin' my tag line
    Em                      G                     D              C       
But you know the truth, I'd rather hold you than try to catch this flight
   Em               G                            D    C
So many things I'd rather say but for now it's goodbye

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7                 Em    D
You say I'm always leavin'
Am7 Am             Em      D            
You, when you're sleepin' alone, but the
C                             A               
The car's outside but I don't wanna go tonight

[Chorus]
G                      B7         
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
           Em                     C             
Unless you pack your bags, you're comin' with me
G                             B7                           Em
I'm tired of lovin' from afar, and never being where you are
                               C               Cm               
Close the windows, lock the doors, don't wanna leave you anymore

[Interlude]
|Em G    |D  C    |

[Verse 2]
     Em                 G                          D   C
I'm starin' at the same four walls in a different hotel
Em              G                          D     C
It's an unfamiliar feelin', but I know it so well
        Em                      G                         D          C     
Oh, but you know the truth, I'd rather hold you than this mobile in my hand
      Em              G                                  D       C
But I guess it'll do 'cause for you, I would run up my phone bill

[Pre-Chorus]
Am7                 Em    D
You say I'm always leavin'
Am7 Am          Em        D            
You, when you need me the most, but the
C                             A               
The car's outside but I don't wanna go tonight

[Chorus]
G                      B7         
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
           Em                     C             
Unless you pack your bags, you're comin' with me
G                             B7                           Em
I'm tired of lovin' from afar, and never being where you are
                               C                                
Close the windows, lock the doors, don't wanna leave you anymore

[Post-Chorus]
G           B7               Em
Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ooh-ooh, ah-ah
          C                                
Ooh-ooh, aah, don't wanna leave you anymore

[Bridge]
Am7                       Em           D                          Am7 
Oh, darling, all of the city lights never shine as bright as your eyes
                              Em              D                         
I would trade them all for a minute more but the car's outside, and he's
C                        A                         
Called me twice but he's gonna have to wait tonight

[Chorus]
G                      B7         
I'm not gettin' in the Addison Lee
           Em                     C             
Unless you pack your bags, you're comin' with me
G                             B7                           Em
I'm tired of lovin' from afar, and never being where you are
                               C                                
Close the windows, lock the doors, don't wanna leave you anymore

[Post-Chorus]
G           B7               Em
Ooh-ooh, ah-ah, ooh-ooh, ah-ah
          C                                  G   
Ooh-ooh, aah, no, I don't wanna leave you anymore
                               B7       
(Ooh-ooh, ah-ah) I don't wanna leave you
                               Em       
(Ooh-ooh, ah-ah) I don't wanna leave you
                               C        
(Ooh-ooh, ah-ah) I don't wanna leave you
            Cm         G     
Don't wanna leave you anymore
