In times like this, the great heaven knows
That we wish we had not so many clothes
Let's loosen up with a playful tease
Like all lovers did through the centuries
[A] We're following [E] into history
If [F#] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
We're following into history
If [F#m] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
When [G] it gets so hot the other day
You find your clothes getting in the way
If a pretty dress had your true desire
For nice and slow, [G] don't turn the [A] fire
We're following into [E] history
If [F#m] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
We're following [E] into history
If [F#m] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
[G] Did you see what Butler saw?
Or a mirrored room with a mirrored floor?
All the sneaky looks he's down on you
Upon a substitute for a rendezvous
We're [A] following [E] into history
If [F#m] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
We're following into history
If [F#] I should call you, [A] we'd soon be gone
[G] In times like this, the great heaven knows
That we wish we had not so many clothes
So let's loosen up with a playful tease
Like all lovers did through the centuries

[B] If [G] you think it's cheap or a bit risky
Please don't say a word or slip away Quiet, amen
Leaves in lies like an octopus
With big x-ray eyes
[B] Some eyes of [F#] gold
Using [G#m] your quiet side [B] In general
[F#] [G#m] I'm on my own tonight
