Intro  D  G   D  A   G  D    AX2
DHere I am, last of the romantics
GEvery time I get cAaught in the sway
DI'm just a fool for a love song
GBut I wouldn't have it Aany other way
BmThe white boys and the Gblack girls sang
BmThe heartbreak kids kept Gdreaming
BmThrough the thick flat light of a Gmid west night
EThe Detroit station came sAcreaming...
        GAnd all I ever wanted, Aall you got to Ddo
        is, baby, just Gdon't say goodnight
        till the Aman gets around to Dour song
        Turn up the GradiAo till this
        one's thDrough
        GI got what I wanted, aAll I ever
        wanted was Dyou...
DTake your time, make your mind up
GDon't say yes if you Areally don't know
D'Cause I can hold on just a little longer
GAnd the night is still young, Aso let's go...
BmYou hold it all in your Ghands tonight
Bmwith your sweet surrender sGighs
BmFrench kisses 'neath the Gstreetlight
You never Ewin if you Anever try...
        GAnd all I ever wanted, Aall you got to Ddo
        is, baby, just Gdon't say goodnight
        till the Aman gets around to Dour song

        GI got what I wanted, aAll I ever
        wanted was Dyou...
