Em

All the bedroom lights go out
            
D

As the neighbourhood gets quiet
   
Am
                                     
Em

Ev'rything in heaven and earth is almost right

               
Em

But there's a wife who's wond'ring
             
D

Where her husband could be tonight
              
Am

And when the phone rang almost once
             
Em

She took a dreadful fright

         
Em

Little things just seem to undermine
        
D

Her confidence in him
Am
                        
Em

He was late this time last week

Em

Who can she turn to
           
D

When the chance of coincidence is slim
            
Am

B

`Cause the baby isn't old enough to speak

              
G#dim
    
G
    
D

There's been a long honeymoon
               
G#dim
       
G
        
D

She thought too late and spoke too soon
             
C

There's no money-back guarantee
             
Bm

On future happiness
              
G#dim
    
G
    
F

There's been a long honeymoon
                 
Fm
                       
Eb

If he's out on a date then her life's in ruins
    
Ebm
                
Bb

She never thought her love
      
Ebm
  
C#
     
Cm
        
Bm

Could ever be as strong as this

          
Em

All the movies and the papers
               
D

Feature the murders of lonely women
       
Am

If he isn't in by ten
               
Em

She'll call up her best friend

Em

Why doesn't he come home
               
D

Why does her friend's phone keep on ringing
Am

Maybe she should just pretend

There's been a long honeymoon
               
G#dim

D

She thought too late and spoke too soon
             
C

There's no money-back guarantee
             
Bm

On future happiness
              
G#dim
