The walls of this hotel are paper-thin

F             D7/F#            Gm      C7
Last night I heard you making love to him

Am            G#              G    F#
The struggle mouth to mouth and limb to limb

I was not seized by jealousy at all

F                         Gm
In fact a burden lifted from my soul

I listened to your kisses at the door

I never heard the world so clear before

Am            G#              G    F#
You ran your bath and you began to sing

Dm           C#       C   B
I felt so good I couldn't feel a thing

Fmaj7                       F6
I stood there with my ear against the wall

And I can't wait for you to take my place

You are The Naked Angel In My Heart

You are The Woman With Her Legs Apart

It's written on the walls of this hotel
