Let's not go home, we'll catch the late train, I've got enough money to pay all the way
                        G                         F                          G           Am
When the postman calls, he'll deliver the letter, I've explained everything; it's better that way

[chorus]

Am                       G                              Em                      F          G           Am
(Divided by, divided by) I think they heard a rumour - (Divided by, divided by) Or someone tipped them off
Am                       G                          Em                       F         G      Am  
(Divided by, divided by) It's better to go sooner - (Divided by, divided by) Than call it all off

We'll catch a plane to New York, and a cab going down, Cross the bridges and tunnels, straight into town
                          G           F                        G      Am
Tomorrow morning we'll be miles away, on another continent and another day

[chorus]

Am                       G                   Em                      F       G      Am
(Divided by, divided by) Let's not go home - (Divided by, divided by) Or call it a day
Am                       G                     Em                      F       G      Am

So why hang around for the deed to be done, you can give it all up for a place in the sun
                                G               F                      G      Am
