         C       F      C   
A little barroom on his way home 
  C                  G      C 
A bed to lay on in a room upstairs 
           C                 F        C 
What’s her name, he’ll never see her again 
C                   G          C 
Close the door, who knows, who cares 
 

         C       F      C 
And they call it makin’ love 
F      C     G      C 
Makin’ love, makin’ love 
C              F       C 
Throw it down, pick it up 
F        C  Am  G       C 
Dress it up and call it love 
 
Together alone like nothing’s wrong 
In a house called home, in a double bed 
They’ve grown so far apart they just fumble in the dark 
Not one single word is said 
 
Chorus
