Am
I don't have a problem
         F             Am
I'm not seeking her advice
I'm saving that for later
            C               G
Yeah, it's something awful nice
Am
I had a shaky feeling
           G           D
When she floated into sight
    F               Em         Am
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight

I'm ragged round the edges
All these people in the room
There's magic in the air
I'm guessing she can feel it too
Prospective recreation
Helps me keep her in my sight
I imagine we'll be doing it tonight

Em
That's why everybody's sitting around
We can't think of nothing better to do
There's no empty bottle
They're all half full
So we end up spinning a shoe
We keep on going until poor old Lenny's
Got drool hanging off of his chin
He can't stop winning
When the shoe stops spinning
But he doesn't know where to begin

She wasn't in the running
She was never in the game
I could see her in the distance
But I could not lay my claim
Let me tell you about this cherry
I never got a single bite
Therefore I imagine we'll be doing it
Tonight
