Tom : G
G F#7 Am7 D9 D7
Here we are, out of cigarettes
G G/F# E7 C Cdim
Holding hands and yawning look how late it gets
G7M G6 E7 C Am7 Cm7
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
G Edim Am7 Cdim G Am7 D7
And too much in love to say goodnight
G F#7 Am7 D7
Here we are, in the cozy chair
G E7 C Cdim
Picking on a wishbone from the Frigidaire
G7M G6 E7 C Am7 Cm7
Two sleepy people with nothing to say
G Edim Am7 Cdim G
And too much in love to break away
Bridge
G G9 G C D9 D7 G G/F# Em
Do you remember the nights we used to linger in the hall
Em7 C C/B D9 D7 G
Your Father didn't like me at all
D7 G C D9 D7 C C/B Am7 G
Do you remember the reason why we married in the fall
C E7 A7 D7
To rent this little nest, and get a bit of rest
G F#7 Am7 D7
Well, here we are, just about the same
G E7 C Cdim
Foggy little fella, drowsy little dame
G7M G6 E7 C Am7 Cm7
Two sleepy people by dawn's early light
G Edim Am7 Cdim G Am7 G
And too much in love to say goodnight
