[Intro 1]
[Am][F]
[Em][F][Am][Dm][F]
[Em][F][Em][Am][Dm][F]
[Em][F][Am][Dm][F]
[Em][F][Am][F][Em]
[F][Dm][Am][F][Am]
[Em][F][Dm]
[Em]Oh,

[Verse 1]
[Dm]
back to back and side [Am]to side
There's only music on my [Dm]mind
Nothing to worry about but [Am]the beat
I wanted [Dm]you to come and dance with me
But you [Em]wanted to stay
home and watch TV
Oh, but [F]when I got there to my surprise
There was an[G]other [Em]guy looking in your eyes

[Verse 2]
I don't [Am]want,
don't want [F]us to fuss and [Am]fight[F]
[Em]From right now 'til [F]tomorrow night
[Dm]So if you pr[Am]omise to love on[F]ly
me and be by [Em]my side
I'll [F]let you slide
[Em]Oh, without

[Verse 3]
[Dm]a doubt,
tonight is the [F]night[Am]
That we gon' really roll
when the time is [Dm]right
And we're gonna carry it in[F]to [Dm]the [Am]dawn
Oh, but [Dm]where are you,
where can you be?
I've been [Em]waiting it seems an eternity
I took our [F]favorite song from
the record stack, huh
It was "Hey, [G]Jimmy Mack,
when [Em]are you coming back"

[Verse 4]
Well, I'm [Am]so disappointed
[F]you're gone tonight
[Am]'Cau[Em]se your love is
[F]the spice of my [Dm]life
But if you [Am]hurry back in the morn[F]ing
[Am]Then alrig[Em]ht, huh,
I'll [F]let you slide tonight
[Em]Up and down,[Am] pacing 'round,
walk[F]ing in my sleep
[Em]'Cause you've got a promise [F]to keep
[Dm]You've got to come[Am] back and love,
[F]love, love, love, love [Em]me right
And, huh, I'll [F]let you slide [Em]tonight

[Verse 5]
[Dm]I can't wait 'til tomorrow, baby
Can't you come over [Em]tonight?
[Dm]I can't get to sleep, my baby
Come and rock my cradle left to right
I tossed and turned and called
you up (oh, yeah)
But there wasn't anybody home
It makes me sad, I need you bad
But I [C]guess I'm just gonna have [F]to wait
until to[Em]morrow comes
[Am][F]

[Verse 6]
(Slide) oh, I [Em]knew it, I knew it
[F]How could you [Dm]do i[Am]t?[F]
[Am](Slide) it's alrig[Em]ht, huh,
I'll [F]let you slide [Em]tonight, I'll let [Am]you
[F](Sl[Am]ide) yeah, yeah
[Em]How could you do i[F]t? How
could you [Dm]do i[Am]t?[F]
[Am](Slide) well alrig[Em]ht, whoo,
I'll [F]let you slide tonight
[Em]I[Am]

[Verse 7]
[Dm]hired me a private
[F]eye[Am]
To check up on your cool little [Dm]alibis
And what he discovered was
woe[F]ful [Am]to me
Baby, if [Dm]you intend to stay with me
Then you [Em]can 't see the guys
that I know you see
Come on, let's [F]make up and
promise to start anew
Let's take the [G]morning off,
I've [Em]got some plans for you

[Verse 8]
Making [Am]love by the moon
can [F]be mighty fine
[Am]But when the s[Em]un rises, so do[F] I
[Dm]So if you rock[Am] it to me in the m[F]orning
Then [Em]alright, huh,
I'll [F]let you slide tonight
[Em]Really misse[Am]d you today,
I [F]was on [Am]the run
[Em]So wake me up when t[F]he morning comes
[Dm]I think I'll dance[Am] to some music[F]
and groove on the [Em]party light, huh
And let [F]you slide [Em]tonight

[Verse 9]
Get up[Am], yo[F]u go[Am]t love,
[Em]baby[F] (whoo- [Dm]wa)
If you [Am]do it nice in t[F]he morning
[Em]Then alright, huh,
I'll [F]let you slide [Em]tonight
Get up[Am], yo[F]u got to love,[Em]
[F]baby [Dm](whoo- wa)
If we [Am]do it twice in t[F]he morning
Well [Em]alright, whoo,
I'll [F]let you slide [Em]tonight
[Am]Get up,

[F]baby (wh[Dm]oo- wa)
If it's [Am]really nice in the morn[F]ing
It's [Em]alright, I'll let you slide tonight
