Intro: E

Verse 1:
A      Gbm              D
How do I get close to you?
Bm                A         Gbm            Bm   D
Even if you don't notice as I admire you on the subway
A         Gbm                 D
When it's dark outside your house
    Bm                A
You won't let anybody out
    Gbm            Bm     D
And keep a padlock on the door, well

D
One more cocktail
    E   D  Bm
And I'm on your trail

Chorus:
A           D
If I should fall
D                      A
Act as though it never happened
A        D
I will retreat
    D                  A
And sit inside so very quietly

How do I grow old with you?

Even if you don't notice as I pass by you on the sidewalk
A         Gbm               D
When it's dark outside your house
    Bm                A
You won't let anybody out
       Gbm                 Bm     D
You're keeping a dead girl in the closet

D
One more cocktail

  Or is it highly inappropriate

I will retreat

And then go back to university
A           D
If I should fall
D                      A
Act as though it never happened
A        D
I will retreat

And sit inside so very quietly

And sit inside so very quietly
A           D
If I should fall
D                      A
Act as though it never happened
A        D
I will retreat
    D                  A
And then go back to university
