Intro:
C G7
I'm leaning on a lamp,
C6 C#dim
Maybe you think,
G
I look a tramp,
C,
Or you may think,
C6 D7
I'm hanging 'round,
G7 C
To steal a car.
Ebdim Dm7 G7
C G7
But no I'm not a crook,

And if you think,
G7
That's what I look,
G
I'll tell you why I'm here,
Am D7 G7 Dm7 G7
And what my motives are.

I'm leaning on a lamp-post,

Oh my,
G

I won't have to ask,
Am7 D7
What she's late for,
G7 Dm7
She wouldn't leave me flat,

She's not a girl like that.

Oh, she's absolutely wonderful,
And marvellous and beautiful,

And anyone can,
