VERSE 1:
A   F#m       D
How do I get close to you?

Even if you don't notice as I admire you on the subway
A     F#m         D
When it's dark outside your house

You won't let anybody out

And keep a padlock on the door, well

D
One more cocktail
  E  D Bm
And I'm on your trail

CHORUS:
A      D

And sit inside so very quietly

You won't let anybody out

You're keeping a dead girl in the closet
