[Solo]


[Verse]

E                G#             C#m      A
When everybody's fast asleep, I start to creep
E                          G#           C#m         A
Through the shadows of the moonlight, I walk my beat
E                        B
Better close your window tight
        G#            A
I might come in for a bite Oh yeah


[Solo]


[Bridge]

         E                   D
When the night time comes, I start to creep
  E                        E
I prowl around when you're fast asleep
  E                 D
I walk around on my tippy toes
      E                    D
And I get into places that nobody knows

    E                    D
I'm always around if you wanna meet
        E                 D
You can find me on almost every street
       E                    D
You'll always get me on the telephone
          E                           D
I'll even come to your home if you're ever alone
