                            G  
      at the Mexican discotheque 
      She gives him french kisses  
                            C 
                        He gives her french cigarettes 
                        They sit at the same table every time  
                        The lights are low But their eyes shine   
                            G 
                      Just digging the music from those sweet soul bands 
                      She keeps him outta fights Holds on to his hand 


         F                          G 
    He whispers slowly  ....      "tonight's the night" 
         C                          F  
        Months of planning so it's gotta be right 
                                    G 
        Under the table her bag is busting at the seams 
         C                          F  
    She made   sure    to   bring   everything 


         C

         C

 ... His blue Morris van is parked in an alley  
                          G 
      Just by Montague street 
      His friend Eddie he did the respray  
                          C 
                   So he couldn't drive it all last week 
                   And it cost most of the money That he had saved up 
                          G 
        To pay Eddie's receipt But he figures it's worth it 
        Cause the disguise is a must

   She whispers slowly:  "it'll be alright" 
         C                            F  
      I took some  cash  from   my   building society 
                                      G 
 And my monthly check  came in  just right 
         C                            F  
      If only they knew they weren't giving it away
