[Verse 1]
(Guy)
C F C
If I could talk just as fast as I think
A#
I'd have you quick as a wink
F C G C
Cause I think I'm a feller you ought to know better
A# Gm C
And I'd like to buy you a drink
[Verse 2]
F
And the thing we ought to be doin'
A#
Is sittin' here pitchin' and a wooin'
C
Well I could say some things that would tickle you pink
D F# G
If I could talk as fast as I think
[Verse 3]
(Girl)
C
If you could do everything that you say
F
You might get the time of day
G
But so far buddy your lines are all muddy
Dm D G
And I wish you'd just go away
[Verse 4]
C
I can handle insistence
F
But kindly please keep your distance
G
And as long as you're here you might as well stay
C
If you can do everything that you say
[Chorus]
(Both)
F
Let's keep talkin' all night
C
[Refrão]
We're a man and a woman, at least that's right
D
And these days you can't take a chance
G C
At just anything walkin' in pants
[Instrumental]
[Próxima Parte]
F C A# C Gm C A# G C F A# F C F
[Verse 5]
(Guy)
F
If I could walk just as fast as I talk
A#m A#
I'd amble you out to the dock
C
And we'd watch all the fishes and make a few wishes
A# G C D
And mine might give you a shock
[Verse 6]
F
Cause the things you're apt to be hearin'
A#
Are ever so sweet and endearin'
F C
You'd have to guard your heart with a key and a lock
F F# G
If I could walk as fast as I talk
[Verse 7]
(Girl)
C
If you could kiss just as good as you lie
F C
Well I might just give you a try
G
But you're just braggin' and you're tongue is a waggin'
F D G
Like a silly flirt when he's high
[Verse 8]
C
I have trouble conceivin'
F
Of you and me up and leavin'
G D G
But as long as you're here you might as well buy
C
If you can kiss just as good as you lie
[Chorus]
(Both)
F
Let's keep a talkin' all night
C
[Refrão] (repetir)
[Próxima Parte]
C F A# C G C F A# C F
[Verse 9]
(Both)
F
If we could film everything that we see
A#
We'd all be on the T.V.
G C G
It's a little bit foolish and sort of high schoolish
A# G C
But everyone seems to agree
[Verse 10]
F
Though there ain't much new to be sayin'
A#
The game is still worth the playin'
C
We could laugh at ourselves and this whole comedy
F
If we could film everything that we see
[Outro]
(Guy)
C
But I'd still say things that would tickle you pink
F
If I could talk as fast as I think
