Ritchie figured out the bulk of the chords, I just made it easier to

Intro: [ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
You walked into the room and the whole place stopped to notice
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Standing next to you, I feel hopeless and you know this
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7
I?ve never been ashamed of my attraction
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]B[/ch]
I?d be happy if you gave me just a fraction
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch] Aa7
As we danced, I could see in your eyes
[ch]A7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
You and me as senior citizens in love
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Followed your perfume out away from all the rabble
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Right up to your room for a drink and travel scrabble
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7
You, stationed in the warm glow of the T.V.
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]B[/ch]
Too patient as I?m playing L O V E
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch] Aa7
And we laugh ? and we laugh ? and we laugh
[ch]A7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
And we have to or we?ll end up in the bath
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Now we?re in the bath, I?m already thinking marriage
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
I know that in the past it was something I?d disparage
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7
You turned down all the lights, I lit the candles
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]B[/ch]
We rolled around in robes and hotel sandals
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch] Aa7
Then you slept, and I dressed, and I left
[ch]A7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
And I guess I?ll see you Monday like before
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]E[/ch]
Before all the fireworks exploded
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]E[/ch]
Our conversations were so loaded, innuendo flying
[ch]C#m[/ch] [ch]C#2[/ch] Aa7 [ch]E[/ch] [ch]E6[/ch]
Now what can we say? Have a nice day
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E6[/ch]
Looks like rain today?
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
What you say doesn?t matter anyway
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Now I?m in the cab, heading back to my apartment
[ch]E6[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
Everything is drab, and I wish it never started
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7
Now I?ve landed in this awkward situation
[ch]C#m[/ch] Aa7 [ch]B[/ch]
How can I just avoid this conversation?
[ch]E[/ch] [ch]E7[/ch] Aa7
So I wait, come in late. It?d be great
[ch]A7[/ch] [ch]E[/ch]
If you transferred out of state
