[G]Without a pause to wonder, don't be silly

[Verse 2]

She saw [F#dim]him later [D]in the [G]street[Em]
[D]He said, "You are the only one
To recog[F#dim]nize that I'm
[D]the son"[G][Em]
So she [C]bent down and kissed his feet
And [G]then that night,
between the sheets she [A]told [Asus4]him[A]

[Verse 6]
[D]Now we're living somewhere else
[F#dim]We keep opinions t[D]o o[G]urselves[Em]
[D]But still we seek a sneaky
