Afternoon Delight

Words and Music by Bill Danoff

      G
Gonna find my baby, gonna hold her tight
      Am7
Gonna grab some afternoon delight
   G
My motto's always been "When it's right, it's right"
    Am7
Why wait until the middle of a cold, dark night
          Am7                             D7
When everything's a little clearer in the light of day
Am7                                           D7
And we know the night is always gonna be here anyway?

Thinking of you's working up my appetite
Looking forward to a little afternoon delight
Rubbing sticks and stones together makes the sparks ignite
And the thought of rubbing you is getting so exciting

    G
    Sky rockets in flight
    D        B7       Em
    Afternoon delight
    Am7  Bm  C    D7     G
    Af -       ternoon delight
    Am7  Bm  C    D7     G
    Af -       ternoon delight

Started out this morning feeling so polite
I always though a fish could not be caught who didn't bite
But you've got some bait a'waiting and I think I might like
Nibbling a little afternoon delight

    [CHORUS]

        Am7                             D7
        Be waiting for me, baby, when I come around
        Am7                                   D7
        We can make a lot of loving 'fore the sun goes down

[repeat Verse 2]

    [CHORUS]

    Am  Bm  C  D                 G
    Af -       afternoon delight
    (no chord)                   G
    Af -       afternoon delight
