 Da da da da da, da da da da.
Dm7         Em7
  Da da da, da da da da,

Da da da da da.

Verse 1:

     Em7      Am
Call up, ring once hang up the phone,
   G      Fmaj7
To let me know made it home;
           Em7           Dm7
Don't want nothing to be wrong,
     Em7       G  Am
With part-time lo-vers.

Verse 2:

   Em7        Am
If she's with me I'll blink the lights,
   G       Fmaj7
To let you know tonight's the night,
    Em7    Dm7
For me and you;
   Em7       G  Am
My part-time lo-ver.

Chorus 1:

Gm  C9
 We are,
F                          F/G  C
 Undercover passion on the run.
    Am7  Dm7
Cha-sing love, up against the,
Em F#m7b5 G Am
 Su  -u  -u-un.
Gm  C9  F
 We are strangers by day,
          F/G    C
Lovers by night.
                Dm6
Knowing it's so wrong,
               Esus
But feeling so right.

Verse 3:

            Am
If I'm with friends and we should meet,
     G       Fmaj7
Just pass me by; don't even speak.
Em7                   Dm7
 Know the word's "dis-creet",
     Em7       G  Am
With part-time lo-vers.

    Em7        Am
But if there's some emergency;
     G      Fmaj7
Have a male friend to ask for me,
   Em7
So then she won't,
Dm7
 Peek its really you;
   Em7       G   Am
My part-time lo-ver.

Chorus 2:

Gm  C9
 We are,
F                          F/G  C
 Undercover passion on the run.
    Am7  Dm7
Cha-sing love, up against the,
Em F#m7b5 G Am
 Su  -u  -u-un.
Gm  C9  F
 We are strangers by day,
          F/G    C
Lovers by night.
                Dm6
Knowing it's so wrong,
               Esus
But feeling so right.

Interlude:

Am            G
 Da da da da, da da da da,
Fmaj7               Em7
 Da da da da da, da da da da.
Dm7         Em7
  Da da da, da da da da,
      Am7      Dm7
Da da da da da.

Chorus 3:

Gm  C9
 We are,
F                          F/G  C
 Undercover passion on the run.
    Am7  Dm7
Cha-sing love, up against the,
Em F#m7b5 G Am
 Su  -u  -u-un.
Gm  C9  F
 We are strangers by day,
          F/G    C
Lovers by night.
                Dm6
Knowing it's so wrong,
               Esus
But feeling so right.

Verse 4:

              Am
I've got some-thing that I must tell;
     G          Fmaj7
Last night some-one rang our doorbell,
    Em7        Dm7
And it was not you;
   Em7       G   Am
My part-time lo-ver.

Verse 5:

           Am
And then a man called our exchange,
    G      Fmaj7
But didn't want to leave his name,
  Em7                         Dm7
I guess that two can play the game;
   Em7       G  Am
Of part-time lo-vers.

Coda:

(Am)
 You and me;
Em7        G   Am
 Part-time lov-ers.
But, she and he;
Em7        G   Am
 Part-time lov-ers.

(Repeat to Fade)
