Don't be afraid of [Em] me
I'm what you [Gb7] need
I saw you on the [Bm] screens
I know we're meant to be
You're starrin' in my [Em] dreams
In magazines
You're lookin' right at [Gb7] me -You're lookin' right at me-
I'm here around the [Bm] clock
I'm waitin' on your block -I'm waitin' on your block-
But please don't call the [Em] cops
They'll make me stop
And I just wanna [Gb7] talk -I just wanna talk-
Bet I could change your [Bm] life
You could be my wife -Wife, wife-
Could get into a [Em] fight -Fight-
I'll say "You're right"
And you'll kiss me [Gb7] goodnight
I waited on the [Bm] corner 'til I saw the sitter leave
Was easy getting over and I landed on my feet
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
Two fifty thousand dollar bail -Two hundred fifty thousand dollar-
While I'm away, don't read my [Em] mail -Don't read my mail-
Just bring a veil -Just bring a veil-
And come visit me in [Gb7] jail -Visit me in jail-
I'll go back to the [Bm] diner
I'll write another letter -I'll write another letter-
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 told me I was crazy and they
knocked me off my feet -They told me I was crazy-
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 tried to end it all, but now I'm back up on my feet
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
