[Intro]
Amaj7, Emaj7 (x2)
[Verse 1]
You walked into the rAmaj7oom
And the wEmaj7hole place stopped to notice
Standing next to Amaj7you, I feel hopEmaj7eless and you know this
C#mI've never been asAmaj7hamed of my attraction
C#mI'd be happy if you gAmaj7ave me just a Bfraction
As we danEmaj7ced, I could seE7e in your eAmaj7yes
You and Amme as senior citizens in love Emaj7
[Verse 2]
I followed your perfume out away from all the rabble
Right up to your room for a drink and travel Scrabble
You, stationed in the warm glow of the T.V.
Too patient as I'm playing L-O-V-E
And we laugh...and we laugh...and we laugh
And we have to or we'll end up in the bath
[Verse 3]
Now we're in the bath, I'm already thinking marriage
I know that in the past it was something I'd disparage
You turned down all the lights, I lit the candles
We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals
Then you slept, and I dressed, and I left
And I guess I'll see you Monday like before
[Bridge]
BeC#mfore all the Amaj7fireworks explEmaj7oded
C#mOur converAmaj7sations were so loEmaj7aded, innuendo flying
C#mNow what can Cwe sAmaj7ay? Emaj7
Have a nicAmaj7e day
Looks like Emaj7rain today Amaj7
What'd you Emaj7say?
Doesn't matter aAmaj7nyway Emaj7
[Verse 4]
Now I'm in a cab, heading back to my apartment
Everything is drab, and I wish it never started
Now I've landed in this awkward situation
How can I just avoid a conversation?
So I wait, come in late. It'd be great
If you transferred out of state
[End on Emaj7]
