Intro.: |(Eb) |(Eb) ||(Eb) |(Eb) |(Ab) |(Ab) |(F7sus4) |(Ab)
When I (Eb)picked you up for our first date baby, well, your pretty blue eyes, they were drivin' me crazy
And the (Ab)tiny little thought, that was so amazin', is they were (F7)lookin' at me
I (Eb)held open the car door for you then you climbed inside
And slid on over to the (Ab)other side, I thought (F7)my, oh my
(Chorus)
(Eb)Sweet thing, the moon is high and the night is young, come on and (Ab)meet me
In the backyard under the cottonwood tree, it's a (F7)good thing and I'm (Ab)wishin'
C'mon (Eb)sweet thing, won't you climb on out of your window, while the world is (Ab)sleepin'
'Cause you know I need you and there's no way I'll be (F7)leavin', 'til we're kissing on the (Ab)porch swing
Solo: Oh my little |(Eb)sweet thing, |(Eb)mm, mm, |(Ab)mmh |(F7sus4))
Yeah I (Eb)know I'm gonna see you first thing tomorrow, but I just couldn't wait so I had to borrow
Uncle (Ab)Jake's Mustang, it's his favorite car, and so I (F7)can't stay long
(Eb)Standin' here feelin' like a love struck Romeo, all I wanna do is hold you close
And steal a (Ab)little, more time, is that (F7)such a crime?
(Chorus)
(Eb)Sweet thing, the moon is high and the night is young, come on and (Ab)meet me
In the backyard under the cottonwood tree, it's a (F7)good thing and I'm (Ab)wishin'
C'mon (Eb)sweet thing, won't you climb on out of your window, while the world is (Ab)sleepin'
'Cause you know I need you and there's no way I'll be (F7)leavin', 'til we're kissing on the (Ab)porch swing
Solo: Oh, my |(Ab)sweet thing, |(Ab) |(Bb) |(Bb) oh, my |(Ab)sweet thing |(Ab) |(Bb) |(Ab)
(Chorus)
Oh, my (Eb)sweet thing, the moon is high and the night is young, come on and (Ab)meet me
In the backyard under the cottonwood tree, it's a (F7)good thing, tell me, girl, I'm not dreamin'
Oh, (Eb)sweet thing, won't you climb on out of your window while the world is (Ab)sleepin'
'Cause you know I need you and there's no way I'll be (F7)leavin', 'til we're kissing on the (Ab)porch swing
