Chorus 1:

^C But her man is ^Dmsitting across the way, ^C And he can hear ^Dmthe things I'd say. ^C Now he watches from the ^Dmcorner of his eyes, ^C So a move like this would be ^Fso unwise. Ooh, ^Gooh he's ^Fstanding in my ^Cway,^C7 ^F Standing in my ^Cway, hey, ^C7yeah, yeah.^F

Verse 2:

^C You could see she was ^Fmore than ready, ^C To make the move with ^Fme, any time. ^C Not even thinking of the ^Fconsequences, now, now, now.

Chorus 2:

^C So I had to think ^Dmquickly, ^C 'Cos her man; his ^Dmface was looking, oh so mean; ^C As if any time, ^Dmhe could create a scene. ^C So, gently I pushed ^Fher away, Ooh, ^Gooh, he ^Fwants to spoil the ^Cplay.^C7 ^F He's standing in my ^Cway, hey, ^C7yeah, ^F He's standing in my ^Cway, yeah.^C7 ^F Woo-ooh, ^Cooh.

Interlude: C F (x2) Verse 3:

^C Now I understand how he ^Ffeels, ^C But I wish he'd give me a ^Flittle room. ^C I know he's got himself a ^Fraw deal, ^C But I'd like to leave with this ^Flady, soon.

Chorus 3:

^C I didn't mean to be ^Dmso unkind, ^C I had move into the ^Dmone, who was looking fine. ^C Big Spender, he was; ^Dmhad to have his own way, ^C I thought he'd leave, ^Fbut he stayed, Oh, ^Gooh, still ^Fstanding in my ^Cway..^C7. ^F Standing in my ^Cway yeah, ^C7yeah, ^F Standing in my ^Cway, hey.
