C(b5)        C       C(b5) D
Conversation thickens
   D(b5)         D      D(b5) C
As we become old friends
C(b5)                   C     C(b5)
And your pretty fingers fidget
       D                     A
With a glass that's close at hand

[Verse 1]
                       A(b5) A
I sat there and watched you
                        A(b5) A
She sat there and watched you
                       A(b5)
I sat there and watched her
      A
Watch you
A
                  A(b5) A
I went for my drink
                 A(b5)     A
She went for her cigarettes
                   A(b5)
You went for your smile
                 A
The night rolled on

A(b5) A
               B/A  A(b5) A
Now everything cool
              B/A  A(b5) A
Respectful of rule
             C#m
Just deviant minds

Keeping track of the time

[Verse 2]
               D(b5)     D
Now evening in full swing
                D(b5)  D
She's moving in darling
                 D(b5)
She goes down so hard
                 D
My head spins around
D
             D(b5)       D
A little bit frightening
             D(b5)   D
This need so inviting
                   D(b5)
Our hearts pumping hard
                    D
In the cool morning light
D

[Chorus 2]
               E   D
Now nothin' is cool
                     E    D
We've thrown out the rules
             F#m
I swallow my pride
                 B    D
As she takes you aside

[Outro]

I sat there and watched you

I sat there and watched you
