[Verse 1]

C                                  F             Em  Am
 I can dim the lights and sing you songs full of sad things,
Dm7            F     G7       C   G7
 We can do the tango just for two.
C                          F            Em    Am
 I can serenade and gently play on your heart strings;
Dm7           Fm   G7       C   G7
 Be your Valentino just for you.


[Chorus 1]

C     G7/B  Am   Em F   C   G7/B             Am         E7/G#
 Ooh, love, ooh, lo-ver boy, what're doing tonight, hey boy?

    Am  Em         Am    Em
Set my alarm, turn on my charm,
         Dm7                  Fm        G7    C
That's because I'm a good old fashioned lover boy.


[Bridge 1]

Fm                     C/E              Edim C/E Edim C/E
 Ooh, let me feel your heartbeat, (grow fast-er, fast-er),

Fm   Eb7              Ab        Eb7
 Ooh, can you feel my love heat?
                      Ab          Eb7
Come on and sit on my hot seat of love and tell me;
Ab          G7               C
 How do you feel right after all?
                     F         Em Am
I'd like for you and I to go romancing;
Dm7                 Fm      G7    C    G7
 Say the word, your wish is my command.


[Chorus 2]

C     G7/B  Am   Em F   C   G7/B             Am         E7/G#
 Ooh, love, ooh, lo-ver boy, what're doing tonight, hey boy?

Am        Em      Am        Em
 Write my letter, feel much better,
    Dm7          Fm            G7  C
And use my fancy patter on the telephone.


[Break]

C6
 When I'm not with you, think of you always,
              G7sus4          G7/D
(I miss those long hot summer nights), I miss you.
C6                      Gm7
 When I'm not with you; think of me always...
  D7        G7   A7
I love you, love you.

Dm7
 Hey boy, where did you get it from? Hey boy, where did you go?
  Dm                        Fm                 G7              C
I learned my passion in the good old fashioned school of lover boys.

 Driving back in style in my saloon, will do quite nicely,
     Dm7             Fm7         G7      C
Just take me back to yours, that will be fine.
             G7

     Am          Em          Am      Em
Everything's all right, just hold on tight,

That's because I'm a good old fashioned... lover boy.
