A          A6     C#m7     F#m A7M      F#m        F#7 
Gee, it's great after bein' out late walkin' my baby back home 
Bm5-/7    E7      Bm5-/7       E7   Bm5-/7      E7   A   Edim  E7 
Arm   in arm over meadow and farm, walkin' my baby back home 
A       A6      C#m7      F#m          A7M      F#m       F#7 
We go along harmonizing a song, or I'm recitin' a poem 
Bm5-/7   E7          Bm5-/7       E7       Bm5-/7      E7         A   A7M 
Owls go by and they give me the eye walkin' my baby back home 
   C#m                    F#7                                  F#m                      G#7 
We stop for a while, she gives me a smile and snuggles her head on my chest 
    C#m                 F#7                           Bm7             E7 
We start in to pet and that's when I get her talcum all over my vest 
A     A6       C#m7         F#m     A7M        F#m       F#7 
After I kinda straighten my tie,  she has to borrow my comb 
Bm5-/7     E7      Bm5-/7   E7   Bm5-/7       E7        A     A7M 
One kiss then I continue again  walkin' my baby back home 

Interlude: A A6 C#m7 F#m A7M F#m F#7 Bm5-/7 E7 Bm5-/7 E7 Bm5-/7 E7 A Edim  E7 

       C#m                 F#7                              F#m                        G#7 
She's 'fraid of the dark so I have to park outside of her door till it's light 
    C#m              F#7                           B7              E7 
She says if I try to kiss her she'll cry I dry her tears all through the night 
A        A6       C#m7      F#m          A7M             F#m       F#7 
Hand in hand to a barbecue stand, right from her doorway we roam 
Bm5-/7    E7          Bm5-/7      E7  Bm5-/7       E7  C#m5-/7      F#7 
Eats and then it's a pleasure again,  walkin' my baby, talkin' my baby 
Bm5-/7      E7  C#m5-/7        F#7       Bm5-/7        E7      D9     A 
Lovin' my baby, I don't mean maybe, walkin' my baby back home
