Designs On You

The Old 97's. Nothing original here, just notes for me, basically. I always bring out this song when the evening is winding down. It has that mellow energy that comes at the end of a good time, that reminds you that the party was awesome even if now you're exhausted.

Standin' on the corner of 6th, and how'd I forget

| G | G | Am | Am |

Try and do right by you all night, Annette.

| D | D | G | G |

You can go ahead and get married

| Am | Am | Am | Am |

And this'll be our secret thing

| Em | Em | Em | Em |

I won't tell a soul

| C | C |

Except the people in the night club where I sing

| G | G |

I don't mean to get you all worked up

| Am | Am | Am | Am |

Except secretly I do,

| Em | Em | Em | Em |

I'd be lyin if I said I didn't have designs on you,

| G | D | Am | G |

I'd be lyin if I said I didn't have designs on you.

| G | D | Am | G |

Standin' on the corner of 6th, and where do I go,

The parade shut down now the rain is runnin' the show

Where did these people come from

And how soon will they leave?

Normally I'd be into it

But I've got to get some sleep

And I do wish you'd come over

But I'm warning you if you do,

[chorus]

Standin' on the corner of 6th, and how'd I forget

Try and do right by you all night, Annette.

This was just an experiment

In things that might have been

And you can go ahead and get married

And it'll prob'ly never happen again

Now, I don't mean to get you excited

Except secretly I do.

[chorus]
