Misc Musicals – Island Song - Wall Lovin (Ukulele)

            A                   F#m     D         A
Well I just moved here from the town of Malvern, Ohio

     F#m           D
It's right next to Waynesburg,

            A               E
Though that won't help, I'm sure

    A             F#m      D           A
Somehow it's much lonelier here in the city,

       A            D             F#m        E
But at least I'm in love with the woman next door

D      E        A       D
I'm in 4B, and she's in 4A,

        E                              A             E
And she has such gorgeous...well, it's difficult to say

      C#
We've never quite met, I've never seen her exactly,

    F#m
But in my mind's eye she's so clear

        B
'Cause every night, when her boyfriend comes by...

E
Oh, what I overhear!

             A
Give me some wall lovin', she-bop she-bop

             F#m                          D
Give me some sweet wall lovin', shout and moan, she-bop

          A                 E
'Cause it makes me happy to hear you happy

         A           E       A
And it's better than being alone

      C#
Well, I'm not a stalker so don't call a lawyer,

   F#m
To sit back and listen's no sin,

      B
And I can't see a thing, which means I'm no voyeur

          E
Hey, it's not my fault that the walls are thin!

             A
Give me some wall lovin', she-bop she-bop

             F#m                          D
Give me some sweet wall lovin', throw a bone,

          A                      E
I'm just glad to be aware of you being taken care of

         A           E       A
And it's better than being alone

          C#
She's not afraid of self-expression, to give her her credit,

F#m
Even though she doesn't know I know

    B
And love's too precious not to spread it

    E
So don't self-edit, just let it go

A     C#         F#m     D
Whoa, oh whoa oh whoa oh yeah

A A E E F#m F#m A A     N.C.
(thumping, squeaking)

    C#
But then it all stops, and her door creaks open

  F#m
I hear a few footsteps

F#m
Then a knock, and I freeze

    B
But how could they have known

       B
That I heard every groan

          E
And she's asking if I have batteries...

G
Batteries.

    D                      E
Are you all alone? No--I'm not rubbing it in

     D             A           F#m
It's just that I'm new on this floor

         D                         E
You just moved here yourself, from Waynesburg, Ohio!

             D                             A             F#m
Yeah, that's right next to Malvern, and it does help for sure!

A                 D                     A    D
Do you wanna come in? I'll make us some tea

                                  E
And I'm looking at her, and she's gazing at me

                   F#m          D             E
It's love at first sight, and I bet that tonight...

      F#m       D           D   A
We'll give some wall lovin' to 4C

              F#m       D           D   A
Oh yeah we'll give some wall lovin' to 4C

             A
Pass on the wall lovin', she'll bop, I'll bop

             F#m                    D
We got some sweet wall lovin' to achieve

          A                      E
Love isn't a mum thing, and wall lovin' is something

      A         E           A
Even better to give than receive
