The Bats


Tom: F#m

F#m C F#m C

[Verse 1]
F#m
Your folks they say they don't want me
D
Hanging round
C                                   Bm
Cause I come from the wrong part of town
F#m                   D
So I'll meet you in a secret place
C                            Bm
After dark when the sun goes down

[Chorus]
Eb                 Ab
In a shabby little hut
       Eb
By the dock
            Bm
Down by the sea
Eb                     Ab
It ain't nothing fancy but
E          Eb
Yeah, it's paradise to me

[Verse 2]
C#m                   Eb
In the shelter of your tender arms
D                          C#m
When the jukebox begins to play
                        Eb
Then the warmth of your many charms
        D                  C#m
Seem to melt all my cares away

[Chorus]
F                  E
In a shabby little hut
       Bm
By the dock
F           Bbm
Down by the sea
Bbm                    Bm
It ain't nothing fancy but
           Bbm         F
Yeah, it's paradise to me

[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
Eb                 Ab
In a shabby little hut
       Eb
By the dock
            Bm
Down by the sea
Eb                     Ab
It ain't nothing fancy but
E          Eb
Yeah, it's paradise to me

[Verse 3]
C#m                 Eb
Suddenly I look and see the time
      D                    C#m
And I know I must go right away
F#m                    Eb
But my darling when we kiss goodbye
       D                   C#m
How it hurts when you walk away

[Chorus]
F#m                    Bm
From the shabby little hut
       F
By the dock
            Bbm
Down by the sea
F                      Bm
It ain't nothing fancy but
           F   C#m     Bbm
Yeah, it's paradise to me

[Chorus]
D                      C
From the shabby little hut
       D
By the dock
            Bm
Down by the sea
Bm               D     C
It ain't nothing fancy but
           D
Yeah, it's paradise to me

[Chorus]
Eb                 Ab
In a shabby little hut
       Eb
By the dock
            Bm
Down by the sea
Eb                     Ab
It ain't nothing fancy but
E          Eb
Yeah, it's paradise to me
