#1.
G      Em                   Am     D         G
Took a walk and passed your house, late last night.
        Em                     Am     D        G
All the shades were pulled and drawn, way down tight.
     Em                    Am        D                  G
From within, the dim light cast, two silhouettes on the shade.
           Em     Am          D
Oh, what a lovely couple they made.

#2.
G       Em               Am     D        G
Put his arms around your waist, held you tight.
       Em             Am     D      G
Kisses I could almost taste, in the night.
         Em              Am         D                   G 
Wondered why I'm not the guy, whose silhouette's on the shade..
           Em        Am    D     G
I couldn't hide, the tears in my eyes.

CHORUS:
G         Em        Am        D     G       
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
G         Em        Am        D  G
ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh..

Ab   Fm                    Bbm   Eb    Ab
Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore.
       Fm              Bbm   Eb        Ab
Let me in or else I'll beat, down your door.
         Fm                Bbm       Eb                 Ab
When two strangers who had been, two silhouettes on the shade,
           Fm             Bbm    Eb    Ab
said to my shock, "You're on the wrong block."

#4.
Ab          Fm                 Bbm    Eb    Ab
Rushed down to your house with wings, on my feet.
          Fm             Bbm    Eb     Ab
Loved you like I'd never loved, you my sweet.
           Fm              Bbm     Eb                 Ab
Vowed that you and I would be, two silhouettes on the shade,
           Fm        Bbm         Eb     Ab
all of our days, two silhouettes on the shade.

OUTRO:
Ab        Fm        Bbm       Eb    Ab       
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
Ab        Fm        Bbm       Eb  Ab
ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh..(Fade.)
