[A#] [G]
From Hollywood, it's time for America's favorite dance party, American Dance Dance.
This portion brought to you by Breck Krink.
And now, here he is, the star of our show, [B] Dick Crumb!
[A#]
Thank you, Charlie.
[N] Hello, Jim.
How are you?
I was backstage talking to the electric prunes who are going to be with us today,
along with Miss Brenda Holloway.
We have a direct line through to England, if all goes well.
We'll be talking to Jeff Beck, formerly of the Yardbirds,
and one of the gentlemen in the country who is responsible for the hit records of the day.
Charles, you're standing close by.
I just wanted to explain the changes I was talking about at the top of the show.
You're no longer with us, Dick.
No, come back here.
Just kidding, just kidding.
You shook me up.
That's usually the way it happens, you know.
You read about it.
No, if you will, hang on.
And if you're all right and all ready, we are.
We'll be back with you here on American Bandstand right after this message.
And away we go with [A] American Bandstand on a Saturday.
[D] Tommy James and the Shondells.
[E] [A]
I see [D] you standing in the alleys [E] and the hallways.
[A] You're gone now.
I'm going [D] to touch you, but you've vanished [E] through the doorway.
[A] And oh, [E] how hard it is to live without you.
Everything [G] about your imagination [A] is over.
[C#m] I see you come into [A] view.
[C#m] And your face tells me that [F#m] you.
Oh yeah, oh, [E] gonna be by my side.
[F#m] Oh yeah, oh, [E] now it's finally [A] time.
Wait a second.
For [A] once, that's all you [D] are to [E] me.
[A]
For once, those that [D] I [E] only see.
[A]
So I [D] keep walking through the alleys [E] and the hallways.
[A]
I keep remembering the kisses [E] in the doorways.
We're [A] caught through.
[E] Now it all comes back to me.
The movies every Saturday.
[G] The place we used to go to eat.
I want so much to have it like [A] it used to be.
But [C#m] I see you come into [A] view.
And [C#m] your face is telling me that [F#m] you.
Oh yeah, oh, [E] gonna be by my side.
[F#m] Oh yeah, oh, [E] now it's finally time.
[A] Here comes the air.
For once, that's all [D] you are to
[E] me.
[A]
For once, those that [B] I only [E] see.
[G#m] Alright.
