E         E       Dbm       A           E E Dbm A
 Been around for a long time now, I guess
E         E       Dbm        A          E        E Dbm A
 Came around for a one-night thing and I never left
E       E         Dbm        A    E       E             Dbm       A
 Got a key to your old front door, you can keep me in the bedside drawer
   E              E       Dbm      A        E -Hold-
And when you want you can slide me out again

Oh, how did I lose it at the Intro?

Take me, I wanna go

 Never been with a type like you before
E        E        Dbm         A             E          E Dbm A
 Chilled out, top down, just what I've been looking for
E         E           Dbm       A
 Pullin' up, got your hair real neat
E      E                Dbm       A
 Came cruisin' from the coast to scoop me
E               E                Dbm       A         E -Hold-
 And I've been counting down the days to jump back in

Take me to the ocean blue

Singing every song we know

In your transistor radio like doo, doo, doo, doo, doooo
