Smokie - Oh Carol

	So here it is, simple chords and patter, some tongue twisting lyrics :) and as aresult (x02210@1)
beautiful, worth of learning song.
	As most of Smokie songs are, this one follows the 12-bar blues pattern,i might be 
here not talking about a blues song,
    but it's what I call it.

Starts with:

D--0--2--4--5--

Played on bass.At the five you enter singing.

GI (320003@1)was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'
			DWhen (xx0232@1)I saw you walkin' my way

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
				GBut (320003@1)so do I and I ain't losin' today

GWell (320003@1)your hips were swingin' and your jeans were clingin'
				DYou (xx0232@1)were driving me out of my mind

On a hot afternoon when there's nothin' to do
						GYou're (320003@1)not the sort of thing a fellow should find

GSo (320003@1)I pulled on over, tossed your hair off your shoulder
				DAs (xx0232@1)you turned and you looked my way

Oh you would have died or you'd have skinned me alive
				  GIf (320003@1)I'd have said what I wanted to say

GSo (320003@1)bein' polite said what you doin' tonight
				DYou (xx0232@1)said it just so happens I'm free

You got all the right curves and all the right words
		     G (320003@1)G7And (320001@1)that's alright by me


CHORUS:
C (x32010@1)		    GOh (320003@1)Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,
G (320003@1)		  DYou (xx0232@1)got me countin' my nights and days
				G (320003@1) G7Oh (320001@1)I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay,
C (x32010@1)		GOh (320003@1)Carol, nobody's done it before
			  DOh (xx0232@1)baby you've opened the door,
D (xx0232@1)	    GOh (320003@1)Carol you can do it some more


GWell (320003@1)if you're ready for this when we started to kiss
			     DShe (xx0232@1)said hold on a minute or two

Well naturally I knew it couldn't be me
			     GI (320003@1)said baby what's troublin' you
GShe (320003@1)said I'm not sixteen if you know what I mean
				DSo (xx0232@1)we sat and we talked for a while

But when we finally kissed you know she didn't resist
			     GAnd (320003@1)I must say she did it with style


CHORUS:
C (x32010@1)		    GOh (320003@1)Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,
G (320003@1)		  DYou (xx0232@1)got me countin' my nights and days
				G (320003@1) G7Oh (320001@1)I'm floatin' on the milky way-ay-ay-ay,
C (x32010@1)		GOh (320003@1)Carol, nobody's done it before
			  DOh (xx0232@1)baby you've opened the door,
D (xx0232@1)	    GOh (320003@1)Carol you can do it some more

GWell (320003@1)I was out cruisin', gettin' late and I was losin'
			  DWhen (xx0232@1)I saw you walking my way

So nonchalant, I bet you get what you want
				GBut (320003@1)so do I and I ain't losin' today

CHORUS:
C (x32010@1)		    GOh (320003@1)Carol you got me eatin' my heart away,
