[Verse 1]
E B A G#m A
Oh, I've decided not to try
A E
To understand my life
B A G#m A
Grasp the forces that deny
A E
They grapple with my drive
B A G#m A
Oh, my heart full of pain
E B A G#m A A
So I follow my groin not my brain
[Chorus]
Am C
On a night like tonight
D
I'm walking in the shallows
Am C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm Em Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
D
Walking in the shallows
C Am D D G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright
[Verse 2]
E B A G#m A
Oh, I've decided not to try
A E
To understand my life
B A G#m A
Cos the wherefores and the whys
A E
Play havoc with my mind
B A G#m A
Oh, my heart full of pain
E B A G#m A
So I follow my groin not my brain
[Chorus]
Am C
On a night like tonight
D
I'm walking in the shallows
Am C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm Em Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
D
Walking in the shallows
C Am D D G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright
[Middle 8]
Em C
I don't want to think I'm bored of time
Em C
Spent wasting words on being kind
G D Am Bm D
I'd rather be a fool than be cruel
[Chorus]
Am C
On a night like tonight
D
I'm walking in the shallows
Am C
Take me out, where it's bright
D
I'm off the straight and narrow
Bm Em Am
Feel alive. So won't you be my girl?
D
Walking in the shallows
C Am D Em F#m G
Close your eyes. Hold me tight. Be alright
