Intro: E6 E E6 E

 

 

E6 E

You walked into the room and the whole place stopped to notice

 

E6 E

Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this

 

C#m Aa7

I?ve never been ashamed of my attraction

 

C#m Aa7 B

I?d be happy if you gave me just a fraction

 

E E7 Aa7

As we danced, I could see in your eyes

 

A7 E

You and me as senior citizens in love

 

E6 E

Followed your perfume out away from all the rabble

 

E6 E

Right up to your room for a drink and travel scrabble

 

C#m Aa7

You, stationed in the warm glow of the T.V.

 

C#m Aa7 B

Too patient as I?m playing L О V E

 

E E7 Aa7

And we laugh ? and we laugh ? and we laugh

 

A7 E

And we have to or we?ll end up in the bath

 

 

E6 E

Now we?re in the bath, I?m already thinking marriage

 

E6 E

I know that in the past it was something I?d disparage

 

C#m Aa7

You turned down all the lights, I lit the candles

 

C#m Aa7 B

We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals

 

E E7 Aa7

Then you slept, and I dressed, and I left

 

A7 E

And I guess I?ll see you Monday like before

 

C#m Aa7 E

Before all the fireworks exploded

 

C#m Aa7 E

Оur conversations were so loaded, innuendo flying

 

C#m C#2 Aa7 E E6

Now what can we say? Have a nice day

 

E E6

Looks like rain today?

 

E E6 E

What you say doesn?t matter anyway

 

E6 E

Now I?m in the cab, heading back to my apartment

 

E6 E

Everything is drab, and I wish it never started

 

C#m Aa7

Now I?ve landed in this awkward situation

 

C#m Aa7 B

How can I just avoid this conversation?

 

E E7 Aa7

So I wait, come in late. It?d be great

 

A7 E

If you transferred out of state
