VERSE: EA Met people that are like a cupload of sand C#mEA They like to slip like cold water through your hands yeah
EA They so sick of the way I just couldn't relate C#mEA I started thinking I was lonely in the name of fate. B But that ain't the case
CHORUS: E We're gonna make a little love in the afternoon A And everybody's gonna say
Giddy up giddy up BmD Kiss you all subtle by the light of the moon BD And take you down to Mozambique
And my prediction is
E Kick it on down to the edge of the floor A And everybody once more
Giddy up giddy up Bm Top it on the street by the water and light BA And let me reassure you F We're staying on the horse tonight
VERSE: EA It ain't over till it's over baby - we've only begun yeah C#mEA I know life is short, so let's have some fun now yeah EA When the time is going right, we'll up it a gear
Oh yes it would C#mEA I'll redefine by whispering this in your ear B You can hear me loud n' clear
CHORUS: E We're gonna make a little love in the afternoon A And everybody's gonna say
Giddy up giddy up BmD Kiss you all subtle by the light of the moon BD And take you down to Mozambique
And my prediction is
E Kick it on down to the edge of the floor A And everybody once more
Giddy up giddy up Bm Top it on the street by the water and light BA And let me reassure you F We're staying on the horse tonight
