 F                   Am        
Bill walked me to my door last night
Gm                     C  
And he said, 'Before I go
 F                           Am   
There's something about our love affair
  Gm                    C    Eb
That I have a right to know
 Cm7                   F 
I said, "Let's not stand out here like this
 Bb 
What would the neighbors think
 F                  Dm 
Why don't we just...step inside
 Bb             C      F
And I'll fix us both a drink"
Bb  C      F 
My girl, Bill
Bb        C      F
My, my, girl, Bill
Bb           C             A      Dm
Can't say enough about the way I feel
      Bb
About my girl
C           F  
My girl, Bill
F                     Am
William's hands were shaking
 Gm                     C    
As he took his glass of wine
 F               Am   
And I could see we both felt the same
Gm            C        Eb
When his eyes met mine
 Cm7             F                Bb
I said, "'Who we love and why we love
           Bbm   
It's hard to understand
 F                     Dm
So let's just sit here on the couch
     Bb          C      F   
And  face this, man to man"
Gm   C   F
My girl, Bill
Gm         F   
My, my, girl, Bill
Bb         C               Dm
Can't say enough about the way I feel
      Bb       walk down to C
About my girl
C       F    Am  Gm   C 
My girl Bill
F                 Am                         
Bill, you know we just left her place
Gm                         C
And we  both know what she said
F                   Am
She doesn't want to see your face
Gm                      C
And she wishes you were dead
Cm7                 F
Now, I know we both love her
        Bb           Bbm
And I guess we always will
F                             Dm
But you're gonna have to find another
Bb           C          F
'Cause she's my girl...Bill
Gm   C    F 
My girl, Bill
Bb       C     F
My, my, girl, Bill
Gm         C                A    Dm
Can't say enough about the way I feel
      Bb
About my girl
C             Gm        C 
Talkin' 'bout my little girl
          F
My girl, Bill
