17th & Chicago
By Charlie Shafter & The Gnomes
9/4/2010
Capo 1
F Dm Am Bb twice
F
In the dim light from the television screen
Dm
I saw you on the couch looking at me
Am Bb
Batting your eyes oh so playfully, I want you
F
And I walked over there and got on my knees
Dm
I looked up at you still looking at me
Am Bb
And I told you I was eternally grateful to God
F
For a woman like you, I turned over new
Dm
I kicked the old habits like sniffing glue
Am Bb
And just sitting around smoking with nothing to do
F Dm Am Bb
Honey, I got a phone call late last night
It was from an old friend who got in a fight
With his wife of almost ten years
He said he needed a drink and a place to sleep
So he came on in and started counting sheep
That night, Oh, he dreamed of their wedding day
He had two little kids when the storm rolled in
Iook them by surprise, they never were
The same again, Aw, but what was so good back then
F Dm Am Bb
In the dim light of the television screen
I saw you on the couch looking at me
Batting your eyes so playfully, I want you
