Verse 1:
E MajorE
I know I stand in line until you think you have the time
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m BB
To spend an evening with me
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m
And if we go some place to dance I know that there's a chance
BB E MajorE
You won't be leaving with me
Chorus:
E MajorE
Then afterwards we drop into a quiet little place
A augmentedA C majorC
And have a drink or two
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m BB E MajorE
And then I go and spoil it all by saying somethin' stupid like, "I love you"
Bridge:
E MajorE
I can see it in your eyes that you despise the same old lines
A augmentedA
You heard the night before
F#F#
And though it's just a line to you for me it's true
BB
And never seemed so right before
Verse 2:
E MajorE
I practice every day to find some clever lines to say
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m BB
To make the meaning come through
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m
But then I think I'll wait until the evening gets late
BB E MajorE
And I'm alone with you
Chorus:
E MajorE
The time is right, your perfume fills my head, the stars get red
A augmentedA C majorC
And, oh, the night's so blue
F# minorF#m BB F# minorF#m BB E MajorE
And then I go and spoil it all by saying somethin' stupid like, "I love you"
