                          G  C*             G/B  G  
After dark, the shadow people walk, it's another world
             G  C*                    G  C*
Playing Valentino, trying to get a kiss 
          C*     G/B  G  
From the tren-dy  girl (It's that lipstick game)
BRIDGE
C*                       C  
Captured by a look from her x-ray eyes
  Am7                              G  C*     G  
She looked right through my best disguise
C*                                   C  
Drinking gin and tonic anything but shy
 Am7                           G  C*           G  
She took me by the hand, whispered with a sigh
 CHORUS
CI , want you to stay, don't, go away
Am7Here, comes the nightG  
CStay, don't be alone, so far from home
Am7Here, comes the nightG  
Walking in the dark through the park
Where the lights are low
She took me by surprise with her x-ray eyes
They're the kind that know
Touched by her affections what social dame
Should a known she was a player in the lipstick game
C*                                   C  
Drinking gin and tonic anything but shy
 Am7                           G  C*           G  
She took me by the hand, whispered with a sigh
 CHORUS
CI , want you to stay, don't, go away
Am7Here, comes the nightG  
CStay, don't be alone, so far from home
Am7Here, comes the nightG
