                  Em9            Em7/9+ 
The boys watch the girls  
          Em7/9           Em6/9               F#7                                                                 
While the girls watch the boys who watch the girls go by; 
Am     Am7+ Am7        Am6        F#7               B7 
Eye to eye,      they solemnly convene to make the scene  
              Em9        Em7/9+ 
Which is the name of the game,  
       Em7/9       Em6/9         F#7 
Watch a guy watch a dame on any street in town, 
Am     Am7+ Am7     Am6       F#7               B7 
Up and down     and over and across, romance is boss. 
Bridge: 
E7       Am             D                   G 
Guys talk   "girl talk",  it happens everywhere; 
B7        Em           F#7                     B7 
Eyes watch  girls walk     with tender lovin' care. 
             Em9          Em7/9+ 
It's keepin' track of the fact  
         Em7/9         Em6/9                F#7 
Watching them watching back that makes the world go 'round. 
 Am            Am7+  Am7      Am6             F#7              B7 
"What's that sound?"     Each time you hear a loud collective sigh 
               Em        Am         Em 
They're making music to watch girls by.
