Intro: E6 E E6 E
E6E
You walked into the room and the whole place stopped to notice
E6E
Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this
C#mAa7
I??ve never been ashamed of my attraction
C#mAa7 B
I??d be happy if you gave me just a fraction
EE7Aa7
As we danced, I could see in your eyes
A7E
You and me as senior citizens in love
E6E
Followed your perfume out away from all the rabble
E6E
Right up to your room for a drink and travel scrabble
C#mAa7
You, stationed in the warm glow of the T.V.
C#mAa7 B
Too patient as I??m playing L O V E
EE7Aa7
And we laugh ? and we laugh ? and we laugh
A7E
And we have to or we??ll end up in the bath
E6E
Now we??re in the bath, I??m already thinking marriage
E6E
I know that in the past it was something I??d disparage
C#mAa7
You turned down all the lights, I lit the candles
C#mAa7 B
We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals
EE7Aa7
Then you slept, and I dressed, and I left
A7E
And I guess I??ll see you Monday like before
C#mAa7 E
Before all the fireworks exploded
C#mAa7 E
Our conversations were so loaded, innuendo flying
C#mC#2Aa7 EE6
Now what can we say? Have a nice day
EE6
Looks like rain today?
EE6E
What you say doesn??t matter anyway
E6E
Now I??m in the cab, heading back to my apartment
E6E
Everything is drab, and I wish it never started
C#mAa7
Now I??ve landed in this awkward situation
C#mAa7 B
How can I just avoid this conversation?
EE7Aa7
So I wait, come in late. It??d be great
A7E
If you transferred out of state
