Sidewalk Song

A                         Amaj7                    Dmaj7       D6   Dmaj7
Forty-seven cracks in the sidewalk that leads from my house to yours
         Gmaj7   D/E             A
How do I know? I count them everyday
      Amaj7              Dmaj7       D6   Dmaj7
While following you from my house to yours
                     Gmaj7                     C  Cmaj7
And though you don't know I'm with you all the way
D/F#                  G                Cmaj7
Wishing I could say “Stop! I love you, darlin' won't you stay”
      Gmaj7             Am7
But I always hang my head
    Gmaj7         Em7                   C/D  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.
