   F                 C       A#          F
Through the lonely nights I think of you
   F                 C       A#         F
Through the lonely hours I dream of you
A#          C           F
I don't no why I do it, but I do
A#           C               A#           F
Why do you take it, what's wrong with you?

Through the lonely weekends I'm far from you
Why you're coming on, like you're supposed to do,
Oh, but you know me so well,
And your time ain't so hard to sell.

Chorus:
 A#           F
Every time I see ya
 A#           F
Every time I see ya
 A#           F
Every time I see ya
 A#           F
Every time I see ya

In your cherry dresses and your shiny shoes
In a doorway on some neon avenue
Making the lonely pay for me
Why don't we set each other free.

Chorus:
A#              F
When did I mislead ya
A#              F
When did I misread ya
A#              F
When did I mistreat ya
A#             F
When did I deceive ya

A#                      F
Oh, I'm stuck out want to cry, cry, cry
A#                           F
Sleep in the doorway, Lord, making a rendezvous
A#                                 F
Lord, I'm stuck out baby, want to cry cry cry cry cry cry cry
A#             F
Lord, babe, I li, li, li, li, li Lord...
