[Bb] [Eb]
[Cm] [Eb] Girls [Cm] on the avenue, [Eb] they're [Cm] trying to get you in
[Ab]
Strolling [Gm] by with a rosebud [Cm] smile
[Eb] [Gm] They're [Cm] all dressed up to kill [Eb] you, lean [Cm] on the window sill
[Ab] Looking your [Gm] way with eyes [Cm] of fire
But [Ab] don't [Bb] you slip, [Ab] don't [Bb] you slip in [Ab] love with the [Eb] girls on the [Gm]
avenue
[Cm]
[Eb] Friday night, see the [Ab] girls on the [Cm] [Ab] avenue
Like a child, [Eb] but [Gm] big store windows, [Cm] you're a bit [Eb]
confused
[Ab] So [Eb] many girls [Fm] on the [Bb]
avenue
[Eb] Girls [C]
[Eb] [Cm] on the avenue, [Eb] [Gm] know [Cm] how to get you in
[Ab] Casting [Gm] out stars, like tricks from a [Cm] hat
[Eb] [Gm] All of them is [Cm] lonely hearts, [Eb] ooh, with an [Cm] awful heart
[Ab] Sometimes [Gm] they seem as fragile [Cm] as glass
[Ab] But don't you [Bb] slip, [Ab] don't [Gm] you slip [Ab] in love [Eb] with the girls [Gm] on the
[Cm] avenue
Friday
[Eb] night, see the [Ab] girls on the avenue
