Intro: E6 E E6 E
You walked into th[E6]e room and the whole[E] place stopped to notice
Standing ne[E6]xt to you, I feel hope[E]less and you know this
[C#m]I?ve never been ash[Aa7]amed of my attraction
[C#m]I?d be happy if you g[Aa7]ave me just a frac[B]tion
[E]As we danced, [E7]I could see [Aa7]in your eyes
[A7]You and me as senior citizens i[E]n love
[E6]Followed your perfume o[E]ut away from all the rabble
Right up to y[E6]our room for a d[E]rink and travel scrabble
[C#m]You, stationed in[Aa7] the warm glow of the T.V.
[C#m]Too patient as I?m pl[Aa7]aying L O V E[B]
[E]And we laugh ? [E7]and we laugh ? [Aa7]and we laugh
[A7]And we have to or we?ll end up in the ba[E]th
Now we?re in the ba[E6]th, I?m alre[E]ady thinking marriage
I know that in the p[E6]ast it was som[E]ething I?d disparage
[C#m]You turned down all the li[Aa7]ghts, I lit the candles
[C#m]We rolled around in r[Aa7]obes and hotel sanda[B]ls
[E]Then you slept, a[E7]nd I dressed, [Aa7]and I left
[A7]And I guess I?ll see you Monday like bef[E]ore
[C#m]Before all the f[Aa7]ireworks explod[E]ed
[C#m]Our conversa[Aa7]tions were so l[E]oaded, innuendo flying
[C#m]Now what can [C#2]we s[Aa7]ay? [E]Have a nice d[E6]ay
[E]Looks like rain today?[E6]
[E]What you say doesn?t matte[E6]r anyway[E]
Now I?m in the [E6]cab, heading b[E]ack to my apartment
Everything is d[E6]rab, and I w[E]ish it never started
[C#m]Now I?ve landed in this aw[Aa7]kward situation
[C#m]How can I just a[Aa7]void this conversatio[B]n?
[E]So I wait, [E7]come in late. [Aa7]It?d be great
[A7]If you transferred out of stat[E]e
