INTRO: B G#m7

#1.
B
Last night I took a walk after dark,
  G#m7
a swingin' place called Palisades Park.
   E                                  F#
To have some fun and see what I could see.
                 F#7
That's where the boys are!

#2.
B
I took a ride on a shoot-the-chute
G#m7
That boy I sat beside was awful cute.
    E                                         F#
And when we stopped he was holdin' hands with me.
             F#7
My heart was flyin'!

BRIDGE:
E                      G#m7
up like a rocket ship..down like a roller coaster.
E                             F#
Back like a loop-the-loop and round, like a

merry-go-round.

CHORUS:
B                                  G#m7
We ate and ate at a hot dog stand..we danced around

to a rockin' band.
E                                     F#
And when he could, that boy gave me a hug..in the
F#7
Tunnel of Love.

#2.
E
You'll never know how great a kiss can feel when
       G#m7
you're stopped at the top of a Ferris wheel.
        E             F#                B
Well, I fell in love, down at Palisades Park.


INTERLUDE: B G#m7 B G#m7 E F# B


CHORUS:
B                                  G#m7
We ate and ate at a hot dog stand..we danced around

to a rockin' band.
E                                     F#
And when he could, that boy gave me a hug..in the
F#7
Tunnel of Love.

#3.
E
You'll never know how great a kiss can feel when
       G#m7
you're stopped at the top of a Ferris wheel.
        E             F#                B
Well, I fell in love, down at Palisades Park.
