[B]
When your emotions [D#m] rise, [G] when your emotions rise to a peak, so does perspiration.
[Bm] That's when you need the peak of protection you get from New Arid Action Spray, the peak [E] of protection [G] deodorant.
If you want to [C] be sure of yourself, even at the peak of emotion, at the peak of [F] perspiration,
[D#] get New [C] Arid Action Spray, the peak [G] of protection deodorant.
[A#] To get us underway on today's bandstand, the four [A#m] tops.
Standing in the [F] shadows of love.
[F#] [C] [F] Don't you [A#m] see me standing in the shadows?
[A#]
[F#] [F]
[F#] But there's no [C#]
[F#] cause for it.
[C#]
[F#] The love [C#]
[F#] [C#] we eat.
[A#] Partially taken away, [D#m] almost.
When you push aside.
[Dm]
[A#] Didn't I treat you right now, baby, didn't I?
Didn't I do the best I could, now didn't I?
So don't you see me standing in the shadows [A#] of love.
I'm [F#] getting ready for the [F] heartache to come.
[A#m] Didn't I treat you right now, baby, didn't I?
So don't you see me standing [F] in the shadows [A#] of love.
I'm [F#] getting ready for the [F] heartache to come.
[F#] [C#]
[F#] [C#] Help me, it may [F#] come day, and it might [C#] come.
[F#] But it's for sure, I ain't got [C#] nothing but sorrow.
[D#] Don't you [D#m] call this love.
How can [A#] you watch me cry after all I've [B] done for you?
[Dm]
[F] Gave you all the love I had, now didn't I?
When you needed me, [A#m] I was always there, I wasn't there.
[F#] Standing in the shadows [C#] of love.
[F#] Getting ready for the [C#] heartache to come.
I'm [F#] trying not to cry out [C#] loud.
[F#] You know crying, it ain't gonna [C#] help me now.
[D#m] What did I do?
[A#] Now what did I say to make [Dm] you wanna leave?
Now [A#] I gave my heart and soul to you, now didn't I?
And didn't I always treat you good, now didn't I?
Standing in the shadows [F] of love.
I'm [F#] getting ready for the [F] heartache to come.
Don't you see [A#] me standing in the shadows [A#] of love.
Time to get [F#] ready for the [F] heartache to come.
[G#]
