SILHOUETTES

The Rays
Key: F


7   -8  8    7    -8    8     -8
Took a walk and passed your house
8     8     7
Late last night
7    -8   8      7    -8    8   -8
All the shades were pulled and drawn
8     8    7
Way down tight
7     -8  8   7  -8  8     -8
From with-in, a dim light cast
8    -8  -8   7   -7  -8   7
Two sil-hou-ettes on the shade
7     7 -7  -6   7  -8  -8  7    8 -8  
Oh, what a love-ly cou-ple they ma-ade

7   -8   8   7   -8   8     -8
Put his arms a-round your waist
8     8    7
Held you tight
7    -8 8   7   -8  8     -8
Kiss-es I could al-most taste
8   8    7
In the night
7    -8    8   7   -8  8   -8
Won-dered why I'm not the guy
8      -8  -8  7      7  -8  7
Whose sil-hou-ette's on the shade
7   7    -7  -6   7   -8    8 -8  7
I could-n't hide the tears in my eyes

Ah,

Lost control and rang your bell
I was sore
Let me in or else I'll beat
Down your door
When two strangers who had been
Two silhouettes on the shade
Said to my shock
Your on the wrong blo-ock

Rushed down to your house with wings
On my feet
Loved you like I never loved
You my sweet
Vowed that you and I would be
Two silhouettes on the shade
All of our days
Two silhouettes on the sha-ade

|7-887-88|-9-98-88-9-8|88-998-99|-9-77|
Ah

Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
