G                     Am 
How do I get close to you? 
                  G 
Even if you don't notice 
                Am     C 
As I admire you on the subway 
G                           Am 
When it's dark outside your house 
                      G 
You won't let anybody out 
                   Am      C 
And keep a padlock on the doorway 

Bm       Am 
One more cocktail 
Bm         Am 
And I'm on your trail 

G           Am 
If I should fall 
C                      G 
Act as though it never happened 
G        Am 
I will retreat 
  C                    G 
And sit inside so very quietly 

( G  Am  C  G ) 2x 

G                      Am 
How do I grow old with you? 
                  G 
Even if you don't notice 
                 Am     C 
As I pass by you on the sidewalk 
G                           Am 
When it's dark outside your house 
                      G 
You won't let anybody out 
                           Am      C 
You're keeping a dead girl in the closet 

Bm           Am 
One more cocktail 
Bm 
  Is it a good time? 
Am 
  Or is it highly inappropriate? 

G           Am 
If I should fall 
C                      G 
Act as though it never happened 
G        Am 
I will retreat 
  C                    G 
And then go back to university 

G           Am 
If I should fall 
C                      G 
Act as though it never happened 
G        Am 
I will retreat 
  C                    G 
And sit inside so very quietly 

( G  Bm  Am  Bm ) 2x 

G  Bm    Am    Bm 
I  won't waste a moment 
G  Bm    Am    Bm 
I won't waste a... 
G  Bm    Am    Bm 
I won't waste a... 

G           Am 
If I should fall 
C                      G 
Act as though it never happened 
G        Am 
I will retreat 
  C                    G 
And sit inside so very quietly 

G           Am 
If I should fall 
C                      G 
Act as though it never happened 
G        Am 
I will retreat 
  C                    G 
And then go back to university
