Sidewalk Song

A augmentedA             Amaj7Amaj7          Dmaj7Dmaj7    D6D6  Dmaj7Dmaj7
Forty-seven cracks in the sidewalk that leads from my house to yours
     Gmaj7Gmaj7  D/ED/E       A augmentedA
How do I know? I count them everyday
   Amaj7Amaj7       Dmaj7Dmaj7    D6D6  Dmaj7Dmaj7
While following you from my house to yours
           Gmaj7Gmaj7           C majorC Cmaj7Cmaj7
And though you don't know I'm with you all the way
D/F#D/F#         G+G        Cmaj7Cmaj7
Wishing I could say “Stop! I love you, darlin' won't you stay”
   Gmaj7Gmaj7       Am7Am7
But I always hang my head
  Gmaj7Gmaj7     E minor 7Em7          C/DC/D G+G
And count all the cracks in the sidewalk instead.

Seventeen streetlights stand in between my house and yours
How do I know? I count them every night
While tracing my steps from my house to yours
To the golden glow of your window light
Wish somehow you knew how long I've been in love with you
And wishin' I were dead
I count all the cracks in the sidewalk on my way home to bed.
