  Geven when I could only do you wrong
  Fgo see if they have our song
  Con the jukebox over G7there
  Ca dollar gets you seven plays
  GI watch you through a smoky haze
  Fa secret smile on your face
  CI'm sorry if I sG7tare

  Gin the marrow of your bones
  Fnow I know your figure like my own
  Ceven from G7behind

  Cbring the tonic and the gin
  Gsay what was your name again?
  Fstick another quarter in
  Cand stay with me G7tonight

[Verse]

summer went the way of spring

winter's waiting in the wings

and we haven't saved anything

C G7

but that's alright

cause we already paid the rent

there's still some money we haven't spent

go put on something different

C G7

we're going out tonight

[Verse]

I have loved you for so long

even when I could only do you wrong

go see if they have our song

C G7

on the jukebox over there

a dollar gets you seven plays

I watch you through a smoky haze

a secret smile on your face

C G7

I'm sorry if I stare

[Chorus]

Am F

but you look like a stranger

C G

in that old-fashioned hat

Am F

and I've got a pocketful of change

C G

and I don't wanna go home yet

[Verse]

clearly I remember when

I used to scratch my poems

on the backs of other lovers in

C G7

the darkness of my mind

back before I made my home

in the marrow of your bones

now I know your figure like my own

C G7

even from behind

[Chorus]

Am F

but you look like a stranger

C G

in that old-fashioned hat

Am F

and I've got a pocketful of change

C G

and I don't wanna go home yet

[Verse]

hey and we'll be married soon

we'll be dancing to this very tune

then we'll have a honeymoon

C G7

then we'll start to fight

bring the tonic and the gin

say what was your name again?

stick another quarter in

C G7

and stay with me tonight

[Chorus]

Am F

but you look like a stranger

C G

in that old-fashioned hat

Am F

and I've got a pocketful of change

C G

and I don't wanna go home yet
