D                    Bm             A
Rain poured down the wind swept avenue

   D                  Bm          A
On another dark wet December afternoon

Em               G               D    A
All my cherished memories are of you

Em                G                   A
All my warmth and comfort stayed with you

             D                          Bm                  A      
I would have wrote you a letter but the telephone calls are free

          D                 Bm                       A
Cause the boys in the next apartment are working all day

          Em                      G                   D    A
They're a great bunch of guys but I think they're all gay

Em              G                           A
What am I doing avoiding what I'm trying to say
-------------------------- CHORUS *******
C        Am                G

Send me a naked picture by the U.S. mail

D                    Bm                      A
Write a pornographic letter You know I won't tell

          Em                          G                   D    A
Keep your legs closed tight keep your body under lock and key

          D                    Bm                   A
There's a plane leaves here at midnight arriving at three

But I'm a bit financially embarrassed I must admit

          Em               G                         D     A
There's a lump comes to my throat and a tear I can't hide

I've been hearing voices out on the street

     D                         Bm                      A

But he doesn't move you like I do 

Em                   G                       D
Tell me what I wanna hear that it just ain't true
ENJOY............
