Last night I took a walk in the dark  
E 
To a place called Palisades Park 
C                                          D 
To have some fun, to see what I could see, that's where the girls are 
I took a ride on the shoopty shoop  
The girl I sat with almost, almost puked 
And when it stopped, she was holding hands with me 
                           C 
   My arms were flying up, like a rocket ship  
    E 
   Down, like a roller coaster 
    C 
   Fast, like a loopty loop  
    D 
   Then around, like a merry-go-round 
We even at a hot dog stand  
Slam danced to a rockin' band 
And when she winked, I gave that girl a hug, in the tunnel of love 
C 
You'll never know how good it just can feel  
E 
'Til it stops at the top of the ferris wheel 
C             D 
I fell in love, down at Palisades Park 
 
{ G  E } x2 
 
{ C  D  F# G } 
 
Last night I took a walk in the dark...  
I took a ride on the shoopty shoop...  
   My arms were flying up, like a rocket ship...  
We even at a hot dog stand...  
You'll never know how good it just can feel...
