E                 G               Bm7
  Yeah, I saw you coming down the street,

        E                          G            Bm7
I could tell by your look that you didn't wanna meet.

    E         G         Bm7
So, this time   I went away,

    E         G          Bm7
but next time   I'm just gonna have to say:
[Pre-Chorus]
A7                   A7
  "Could I buy you a dress or something?

A7                     A7
  Could I buy you some jewelry or something?

A7                      A7
  Would you go out with me or something?

A7                     A7
  Would you sleep with me or something?"
[Chorus]
           E*    E*          G                  Bm7
You better watch out if your train's moving too fast.

           E*   E*            G             Bm7
You better look out if you're living in the past because

B7                  B7          A7
  that's why you'll never lose

            A7     E         E
these sweet misery blues.

B7                  B7         A7

[Verse 2]
E                 G                Bm7
  Yeah, I'm gonna corner you in an elevator

E                          G           Bm7
  and you won't be able to put me off 'til later.

E                            G           Bm7
  I'll put on my charm, I'll tingle your spine,

E                            G                 Bm7
  I'll take off my charm and then you'll wanna die.

[End-Chorus]
           E*    E*              G                Bm7
You better watch out, 'cause you can't get rid of me.

           E*   E*       G               Bm7
You better look out now, babe, don't you see?
