THE DINER

tone [Bm]

Don't be afraid of [Em]me

I'm what you [Gb7]need

I saw you on the [Bm]screens

 

You're starrin' in my [Em]dreams

 

You're lookin' right at [Gb7]me -You're lookin' right at me-

I'm here around the [Bm]clock

 

But please don't call the [Em]cops

 

And I just wanna [Gb7]talk -I just wanna talk-

 

Bet I could change your [Bm]life

 

Could get into a [Em]fight -Fight-

 

And you'll kiss me [Gb7]goodnight

 

I waited on the [Bm]corner 'til I saw the sitter leave

 

I came in through the [Em]kitchen lookin' for something to eat

I left a calling [Gb7]card so they would know that it was me

[Bm]Ah, [Em]ah, [Gb7]ah

 

I tried to save you, but I [Bm]failed

 

While I'm away, don't read my [Em]mail -Don't read my mail-

 

And come visit me in [Gb7]jail -Visit me in jail-

 

I'll go back to the [Bm]diner

 

I hope you'll read it [Em]this time

You [Gb7]better

 

The cops around the [Bm]corner stopped me when I tried to leave

 

They came in through the [Em]kitchen looking for something discrete

I left a calling [Gb7]card so that they would know that it was me

[Bm]Ah, [Em]ah, know that it [Gb7]was me

 

I memorized your [Bm]number, now I call you when I please

 

I saw you in the [Em]car with someone else and couldn't sleep

If something happens to him, you can [Gb7]bet that it was me
