Eb Ab
Sally wake up you don't have to pretend anymore
Bb Eb
'Cause while you were sleeping I drove us to someplace the weather will always be warm
Eb Ab
We can go outside and bury our faces in the sun
Bb Eb
There's no need to worry 'cause no one will ask us where it is that we came from
Ab Eb Ab Bb
We can walk on Main Street, dance in these honky tonk bars
Ab Bb Eb
No one will know who we are
Ab Eb Ab
Eb Ab
Well you like the water so much you could be a fish
Bb Eb
We're right by the ocean so you can go dipping any old time that you wish
Eb Ab
We'll watch the sunset, make love in the old lifeguard stand
Bb Eb
When the setting is done and we've lost the sun we will nap on a blanket upstairs
Ab Eb Ab Bb
We can walk on water, dance in the light of the moon
Ab Bb Eb
Honey, just me and you
Ab Eb Ab
Eb Ab
We'll wake to a restaurant with fancy napkins and plates
Bb Eb
We'll watch the old man as he walks to the big white piano and sits down and plays
Eb Ab
The maitre d' calls me lucky as he pours our wine
Bb Eb
What a beautiful girl and I know in this world that the good ones are so hard to find
Ab Eb Ab Bb
We can walk on red carpet, dance to our favorite songs
Ab Bb Eb
We can stay all night long
Ab Eb Ab
Eb Ab
Sally wake up, you don't have to pretend any more
Bb Eb
'Cause while you were sleeping I drove us to someplace the weather will always be warm
