It's getting late, and while I wait, my poor heart aches on.  

   Fdim(III)     A      B7      Cdim       E     Cdim   B7
Why  keep the brakes on?  Let's mis - be - have.

B7            E            Am7/6    Cdim    E6       C#7
I  feel quite sure affair d'mor would be attractive; 

  Fdim(III)        B      F#7    C#m7-5       B7
While we're still active,    let's mis - be - have.

B7  F#7  B7   E      Cdim     Edim     E7      A
You know my heart is true, and you say you for me care;

    G#7     F#7    Fdim      Cdim     F#7     C   B7
Someone is sure to tell, but what the hell do we care?


B7             E                   Am7/6    Cdim        E6        C#7
They say that spring means just one thing to lit - tle love birds;

     Fdim(III)    A        B7      Cdim         E     Cdim   B7
We're    not   above birds -- let's mis - be - have.
  

B7             E             Am7/6    Cdim    E6        C#7
We're all  a - lone; no chaperone can get our number;

   Fdim(III)    A        B7     Cdim         E     Cdim   B7
The world's in slumber,    let's mis - be - have.


B7            E             Am7/6         Cdim    E6       C#
There's some wild about you, child, that's so contageous;

    Fdim(III)   B      F#7     C#m7-5       B7
Let's   be  outrageous -- let's mis - be - have.



Bridge:


B7  F#7   B7   E      Cdim     Edim     E7      A
When Ad - am won Eve's hand, he wouldn't stand for teasin' --

   G#7    F#7     Fdim       Cdim      F#7     C     B7
He didn't care, although the fruit was out of sea - son.

B7            E              Am7/6        Cdim   E6    C#
They say that bears have love affairs, and even camels --

   Fdim(III)   A       B7     Cdim         E     Cdim   B7
We're married mammals,   let's mis - be - have.

      Cdim        E    A - Edim - E6
Let's mis - be - have.
