Somebody's Knockin' - Terri Gibbs
** The original studio track was in the key of Bm. For ease of playing and vocal range I do it in Am.
For the original key, one can transpose to Bm or simply put a capo at the 2nd fret. **
[Verse]
Am
Somebody's knocking, should I let him in
D7
Lord it's the devil, would you look at him
F C F
I've heard about him, but I never dreamed
F E7
He'd have blue eyes and blue jeans
[Verse]
Am
Well somebody's talking, he's whispering to me
D7
Your place or my place, well which will it be
F C F
I'm getting weaker and he's coming on strong
F E7
But I don't wanna go wrong
[Chorus]
Dm G
He must have tapped my telephone line
Dm G C
He must have known I'm spending my time a-lone
Dm G
He says we'll have one heavenly night
Dm G C E7
My fever's burning so he ought to be right at home
[Verse]

Ooh, Somebody's knocking...

Well, Somebody's knocking...
