Verse 1
My (G major) date is (D major) (A major) (D major) (B minor) (D major) a perfect angel
And it's a perfect (B minor) night (G major)
For holding hands and talk (A major) ing
The setting is just (D major) right
I long to say I love you
But she must never know, (G major)
for I'm only filling (D major) in
and holding (A major) hands for Joe (D major)
Joe called (A major) and asked me
if I'd do a (D major) favor while he's gone
An (E flatdim) d (E major) keep his sweetheart company
until (A major) he got back home
And (D major) now I find I love her too,
and mustn't let it show
(G major) I'm glad the darkness hides (D major) my tears
while (A major) holding hands for Joe (D major) (G major) (D major) (A major)
(D major) I (B minor) took (D major) her to the movies,
I even bought her flowers (G major)
Sat and listened to (A major) her talk
about her job for hours (D major)
(B minor) But (D major) Joe, you'd better hurry home,
cause buddy, I don't (G major) know
If I can keep from holding (D major) hands
for me (A major) instead of Joe
(D major) Joe called (A major) and asked me
if I'd do a (D major) favor while he's gone
An (E flatdim) d (E major) keep his sweetheart company
until (A major) he got back home
And (D major) now I find I love her too
and mustn't let it show
(G major) I'm glad the darkness hides (D major) my tears
while (A major) holding hands for Joe (D major) you
