Introduction:
Gm Eb/G A7/G
Late at night in summer heat. Expensive car, empty street
Gm7 Eb
There's a wire in my jacket. This is my trade
A7 D
It only takes a moment, don't be afraid
Cm F
I can hotwire an ignition like some kind of star
Gm Eº
I'm just a poor boy in a rich man's car
Cm D4 D
So I whisper to the engine, flick on the lights
Gm
And we drive into the night
Gm Eb/G
Oh the smell of the leather always excited my imagination
A7/G Cm
And I picture myself in this different situation
Gm Eb
I'm a company director, two kids and a wife
A7 D4 D
I get the feeling that there's more to this one's life
Cm F
There's some kind of complication, he tells her he's alone
Gm Eº
Spends the night with his lover, there's a trace of her cologne
Cm D
And the words of his mistress, as she whispers them so near
Eb Cm
Start ringing in my ear
Bb Eb Cm F Gm
Please take me dancing tonight I've been all on my own
Eb Cm F Gm
You promised one day we could its, what you said on the phone
Eb Cm F Eb
I'm just a prisoner of love always hid from the light
F Gm
Take me dancing, please take me dancing tonight
Gm Eb
I imagine his wife, she don't look nothing like a fool
A7 D4 D
She picks the kids up form some private school
Cm F
She remembers what he told her, he was late and worked alone
Gm Eº
But there's more than a suspicion in this lingering cologne
Cm D
And the kid's just won't be quiet and she runs a traffic light
Bb
And she start Chorus drives into the night
Bb Eb Cm F Gm
Please take me dancing tonight I've been all on my own
