Moonlight in the curtains, love in the air, a bouquet of roses on the floor
C
Your perfume mingles with cigarette smoke, Dom Perignon at the door
C7 F
Two star crossed lovers in candle light, bathe in the after- glow
Fm C G C
I'd like to stay here and talk all night, but one of us has got to go
[Chorus]
G
Your money's on the dresser, adi- os
C
If you're looking for love, you ain't even close
C7 F
It's been a honey- moon, but I may chew my arm off soon
G C
Your money's on the dresser adi- os
[Instrumental]

C G
I know you're happy here in my arms, waiting to feel Cupids bow
C
But if you keep talking there'll be a gun in mouth in another 10 minutes or so
C7 F
Seems I was finished a good while back clearly you're not finished yet
Fm C G C
You're painting rainbows, I'm fading to black, don't get me wrong me wrong dear just get ---
[Chorus]

Your money's on the dresser, adi- os

If you're looking for love, you ain't even close

It's been a honey- moon, but I may chew my arm off soon

Your money's on the dresser
G C
No, I'm not your confessor, your money's on the dresser adios
