[Opening]
[D]Track suits and [F#]red wine, [Bm]movies for [D]two
We’ll [G]turn off our [D]phones, and we’ll [E]take off our [A]shoes
[D]We’ll play [F#]Nintendo, and [Bm]I’ll always [D]lose
Cause [G]you’ll watch the [D]TV, whilst [E]I’m watching [A]you

[verse 2]
Though we [D]might not be [F#]dancing, by the [Bm]light of the [D]moon, [G][E]mmm
But there’s [Em]nothing, like doing [Gm]nothing, with [D]you

[verse 3]
[D]Dumb [F#]conversations, we [Bm]lose track of [D]time
Have [G]I told you [D]lately, I’m [E]grateful you’re [A]mine
[D]We’ll watch the [F#]Notebook, for the [Bm]seventeenth [D]time
[G]I’ll say “It’s [D]stupid”, then [E]you’ll catch me [A]crying

[verse 4]
Though we’re [D]not making [F#]out, on a [Bm]boat in the [D]rain
Or in a [G]house I’ve painted [E]blue, there’s [Em]nothing
Like doing [Gm]nothing, with [D]you

[verse 5]
So [Bm]shut all the windows, and [F#]lock all the doors
We’re not [D]looking for no one, we don’t [E]need nothing more
[Bm]You’ll bite my lip and, [F#]I’ll want you more
[D]Until we end up, in a [E]heap in the floor
[F][C]Mmm [F#] [B] [Em] [A]

[Closing]
You could be [D]dancing on [F#]table tops, [Bm]wearing [D]high-heels
[G]Drinking [D]until the world, [E]spins like a [A]wheel
But [D]tonight my [F#]apartment, had [Bm]so much [D]appeal, [G][E]mmm
And there’s [Em]nothing, like doing [Gm]nothing, with [Bm]you, [E]mmm
No, there’s [G]nothing, like doing [A]nothing, with [D]you
