D
1. When I picked you up for our first date, baby,
well,
your pretty blue eyes, they were drivin' me crazy,
G
Em
and the tiny little
thought that was so amazing, they were lookin at me.
D
2. I held open the car door for you,
then
you climbed inside and slid on over
G Em
to
the other side, I thought, my, oh my.
D
Sweet thing, when the moon is high and the night is young,
G
come on and meet me in the
backyard under the cotton wood tree,
Em
G
it's a good thing and I'm wishin'.
D
Oh, come on, sweet thing,
G
won't you climb on out of your
window while the world's sleepin' ?
Em
You know, I need you and there's no way I'll be leavin'
G D
till we're kissin'
on the porch swing, oh, my little sweet thing.
+ D - G - Em
D
3. Yeah, I know I'm gonna see you first thing
tomorrow,
but I
just couldn't wait, so I had to borrow
G
Em
Uncle Jake's mustang, it's his
favorite car, so I can't stay long.
D
4. Standin' here feelin'
like a love struck Romeo,
oh,
all I wanna do is hold you close,
G Em A
steal
a little more time, is that such a crime ?
+ CHORUS + D - G - Em - A
D - A - G
+ Oh, my sweet thing
sweet thing.
D
Oh, my sweet thing, the moon
is high and the night is young,
D
come
on and meet me in the backyard under the cotton wood tree,
Em G
it's
a good thing, tell me, I'm not dreamin'.
D
Oh, sweet thing, won't you
climb on out of your window
G
while
the world's sleepin', ‘cause you know I need you and
Em A
there's
no way I'll be leavin' till we're kissin'
on the porch swing,
D - G - A
oh,
my little sweet thing.
