Lyrics

Took a (Dm)walk and passed your (Gm)house

(C7)late last (F)night, all the (Dm)shades were pulled and (Gm)drawn

(C7)’way down (F)tight.

From with (Dm)in a dim light (Gm)cast two (C7)sil hou ettes on the (F)shade.

Oh, what a (Dm)love ly (C7)cou ple they made.

Put his (Dm)arms a round your (Gm)waist,

(C7)held you (F)tight, kiss es (Dm)I could al most (Gm)taste

(C7)in the (F)night, won dered (Dm)why I’m not the (Gm)guy whose (C7)sil hou ette’s on the (F)shade.

I could n’t (Dm)hide the (F)tears in my eyes.

Ah.

Lost con (Em)trol, and rang your (Am)bell.

(D7)I was (G)sore, “Let me (Em)in, or else I’ll (Am)beat

(D7)down your (G)door.” When two (Em)stran gers, who had (Am)been two (D7)sil hou ettes on the (G)shade, said to my (Em)shock, “You’re (Am)on the (D7)wrong block,”

rushed down (Em)to your house with (Am)wings

(D7)on my (G)feet.

Loved you (Em)like I’ve nev er (Am)loved

(D7)you my (G)sweet, vowed that (Em)you and I would (Am)be two (D7)sil hou ettes on the (G)shade all of our (Em)days, two (Am)sil hou ettes (D7)on the (G)shade.

Ah,

Ah,
