[A]
Walking up to your street
They'll [D] sing everything [A] I say
I know I'll say it different
Or [D] at least [A] another way
So if [C#] I stay [F#] too [D] long
[A] It's cause I want you
Hope that you won't make me cry
I [D] did [A] the other night
Do you remember?
People stopped and stared at [D] me
As if I [A] wasn't right
No, no
So if I stay [F#] too long
[D] [A] It's cause I need you
I'm [A]
here to see you door [D] now
Oh, my [A] heart beats so inside
Hope that you will see that
[D]
I ain't gonna [A] take you for a ride
No, I won't
So if I stay [F#] too [D] long
[A] It's cause I love you
You know I do
[G] [D] You make me [A]
[G] [D]
[A] feel good
Oh, now
If [C#] I stay [F#] too long
[D]
You know it's cause I love you
Now we're sitting hand in hand
So relaxed, I'm [A] feeling fine
I got hearing from your [D] lips
But I forget [A] about the time
And we say
If [C#] I stay [F#] too [D] long
[A] I don't be worrying
We [E] say
If [C#] I stay [F#] too [D] long
I don't be worrying
About [G] a thing
[A] [A] [D] [A]

Walking up to your street
