#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..

#3.
G#   Fm                    Bbm   D#    G#
Lost control and rang your bell, I was sore.
       Fm              Bbm   D#        G#
Let me in or else I'll beat, down your door.
         Fm                Bbm       D#                 G#
When two strangers who had been, two silhouettes on the shade,
           Fm             Bbm    D#    G#
said to my shock, "You're on the wrong block."

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

OUTRO:
G#        Fm        Bbm       D#    G#       
Ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh...
G#        Fm        Bbm       D#  G#
ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh, ahh..(Fade.)


A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
