E    A   D
Like the wallpaper sticks to the wall
A        D        E             A
Like the seashore clings to the sea
A    D                D7          Bm
Like you'll never get rid of your shadow
              A7               D
Frank, you'll never get rid of me

[Pre Chorus]
            A      E         A
Let all the others fight and fuss
         Bm     E7          A7
Whatever happens, we've got ours

[Chorus 1]
D
We're closer than pages that stick in a book
G                              Em
We're closer than ripples that play in a brook
             G                Em7           A7
Wherever you find him, you'll find me, just look
D                          Em7            A7
Closer than a miser or the bloodhounds to Liza

[Chorus 2]
D
We're closer than smog when it clings to L.A
C#7
We're closer than bobby is to JFK
Bm7            B7        E7      A
Not a soul can bust this team in two
                       A
We stick together like glue

[Verse 2]
    A7        D
And when it's sleeping time
               A7 D
That's when we rise
   G        D
We start to swing
             E
Swing to the skies
    F#7
Our clocks don't chime
           B7
What a surprise
     E7          A7
They ring-a-ding-ding!
      D
Happy new year!

[Chorus 3]
D
And now to repeat what I said at the start
C7                              B7
They'll need a large crowbar to break us apart
Em   Bm7 Em7        A7   F#7   B7
We're alone but far from blue

[Outro]
Em7
Before we get finished, we'll make the town roar
F#7                                B7
We'll make all the late spots, and then a few more
Em               Em7           C#m7  B7     A7
We'll wind up at Jilly's right after Toot's Shor
        Bm7             G#7                   G
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! (here comes the party!)
   B Fm Em7  A7   D7  B7   A   D
For my shadow and me!

[Interval]
N.C.
Say Frank?
N.C.
What is it, Sam?
N.C.
Do me a favor?
N.C.
What do you want, now?
N.C.
Would you mind taking it, just one more time?
N.C
From the top?
N.C.
No! from the ending!
N.C
Wonderful!

[Outro 2]
Em7                                     E7
And while we are swinging, to mention a few
F#7                           B7
We'll drop in at Danny's, the little club too
Em  G             E                 A7
But wind up at Jilly's, whatever we do
        Bm7      D7     G
Life is gonna be we-wow-whee! (wow!)
    D  Em7   A7   D   D7  B7  D  G  D
For my shadow and me!

N.C.
Frank?
N.C.
Oh, forget it sam
