Strum
D-DU-UDU
Standin' in your front yard, throwing pebbles at your window
We talked about this for so long
You know he doesn't treat you right, so get away with me tonight
I swear I'll get you back before the dawn
We'll cross that line together, no one has to know
Remember this forever and never let it show
No hesitation, if not now we'll never know
We should've done this long ago
Words are not so useful, your body tells me so
I know your hearts is beating fast
Think of all the time we wasted with those feelings that we had
Maybe this time we might not feel so bad
We'll cross that line together, no one has to know
Remember this forever and never let it show
No hesitation, if not now we'll never know
We should've done this long ago
Intro again, this time with some effect (wah-wah?)
After that, there's some interlude that I can't quite get. Try just messing around
with the Gmaj or Amaj scales
You call me a home wrecker, it's another circumstance
But I can't let this go unknown, this beautiful romance
The way I feel good taunts me still, I'm jumping at the chance
Come on girl I'm reaching for you, so just grab my hand
We'll cross that line together, no one has to know
Remember this forever and never let it show
No hesitation, if not now we'll never know
We should've done this long ago
We'll cross that line together, no one has to know
Remember this forever and never let it show
No hesitation, if not now we'll never know
We should've done this long ago
Wooooo-ooo-ah Ooooooooooooh
Ooo-ooooaaaah Oooooooooooooh
(x4) End on
