I saw you there
  A6          Am+7
I stopped and stared

the curly girlie smiled
    C#m7
You really were
    A6       Am+7
too close to her
    C#m7             A6  Am+7
and people just went by

  C#m7
I saw your face
    A6    Am+7
and her embrace
     C#m7           A6   Am+7
your whisper in her ear
  C#m7
I know the score
              A6         Am+7
'cause I have heard it before
  C#m7                A6   Am+7
I read your lips with fear

Ebdim       B          Ab7
