Intro - D7M  D7M  G  G  (6 times)

D7M                     G
 Well it happened years ago 
D7M                       G
 When you lived on Stanhope Road. 
                    D7M
We listened to your sister 
                        G
When she came home from school 
                       D7M
'Cos she was two years older 
                        G
And she had boys in her room. 

We listened outside and heard her, alright.
 
D7M  D7M  G  G

Well that was alright for a while,
But soon I wanted more. 
I want to see as well as hear and so I,
Hid inside her wardrobe.
And she came round four
And she was with some kid called David
From the garage up the road 
I listened outside, I heard her, alright. 

Em                     G2
 Oh I want to take you home. 
                   D7M
I want to give you children. 
                G
You might be my girlfriend, 
                              D7M  G
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah 


When I saw you next day
I really couldn't tell 
'Cos you might go and tell your mother. 
And so you went with Neve 
And Neve was coming on 
And I thought I heard you laughing
When his Mum and Dad were gone. 
I listened outside, I heard you. Alright. 

Oh I want to take you home...etc. 

Well I guess it couldn't last too long. 
I came home one day and all her things were gone,
I fell asleep inside, I never heard her come.
And then she opened up her wardrobe
AndI had to get it on. Yeah.
Oh, listen we were on the bed when you came home
I heard you stop outside the door. 
I know you won't believe it's true,
I only went with her 'cos she looks like you. 

Oh I want to take you home...[etc.]
