Walkin' My Baby Back Home

(Eb)Gee! It's great, after (Ebmaj7)bein' out late,

walkin' my baby back (F9)home.

(Bb9)Arm in arm, over (Fm7)meadow and farm,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

(Eb)We go 'long (Ebmaj7)harmonizin' a song,

or I'm reciting a (F9)poem.

(Bb9)Owls go by, and they (Fm7)give me the eye,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

We (Gm)stop for awhile, she (C7)gives me a smile and (Eb)snuggles her head to my (D7sus)chest.

(D7)We (Gm)start in to pet, and (C7)that's when I get (F9)her talcum all (Bb9)over my vest.

(Eb)After I kinda (Ebmaj7)straighten my tie,

she has to borrow my (F9)comb.

(Bb9)One kiss, then I (Fm7)continue again,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

(Eb)Gee! It's great, after (Ebmaj7)bein' out late,

walkin' my baby back (F9)home.

(Bb9)Arm in arm, over (Fm7)meadow and farm,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

(Eb)We go 'long (Ebmaj7)harmonizin' a song,

or I'm reciting a (F9)poem.

(Bb9)Owls go by, and they (Fm7)give me the eye,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

She's (Gm)'fraid of the dark, so (C7)I have to park (Eb)outside of her door till it's (D7sus)light.

(D7)She (Gm)says if I try to (C7)kiss her,

she'll cry.

(F9)I dry her tears (Bb9)all through the night.

(Eb)Hand in hand to a (Ebmaj7)barbecue stand,

right from her doorway we (F9)roam.

(Bb9)Eats! and then it's a (Fm7)pleasure again,

walkin' my baby back (Eb)home.

(Eb)home.
