[RIFF; A-Bm] (riff chords played open eg no barre and played under verses)
Long ago when toyboys were still a high taboo.
I was young but fell in love with a lady we all knew.
This had to be a secret love, meeting in the dark.
Late at night down lovers lane, in the back seat of her car.
[E-A-B-A X2]
I was just a baby, just 17 to my friends.
She was 35 years old and married to my old man.
Each night she'd call me and I'd run out of the door.
My stepmother lover had me jumping that's for sure.
(CHORUS)
[D] That'll be [Em7] you. [D] That'll be [Em7] me and you.
[D] Sitting on the [Em7] corner,girl, [Bm] watching the world go [A] by.
[D] That'll [Em7] me. [D] That'll be [Em7] me and you.
[D] Walking through the [Em7] summer rain. [Bm] Watching all the world go [A] by.
I didn't realize the guilt, the fear and the lies.
If my dad found out there's be nowhere for me to hide.
I was in love with her, but she just liked the thrill.
She would never walk away from mansion on the hill.
(CHORUS)
One day I got a call in work, my dad had died.
When I got home she was there by his side.
Making eyes at my brothers through her widows weeds.
I knew right then that she wont ever be true to me.
[C] She's [D] no good for a [Em7] bride.
[Bm] She gets her [G] love on the [Bm] side.
She [G] goes for the [Bm] thrill while her [Em] hand's in the [Bm] till.
And [G] money's her [A] spiritual [G] guide.
I'm over here. You're over there.
Let's pretend were together then we can share.
Share the light. Share the love.
Share the apples that fall from the trees up above.
