Intro: … F#m | F#m | F#m |
       F#m | F#m F#m7 |
       C#m9sus4 | C#m9sus4 |

       C#m9sus4 |
       C#m9sus4 C#m9sus4 C#m9sus4 E

F#m
You and I were finished,
      E6/F#
I was through with you.
Bm7/F#
Splitting up forever
           F#m
Seemed the thing to do.
I said, I can’t stand you
          E6/F#
With your honey touch,
Bm7/F#
This time you were cheating me,
    F#m
One time too much.

   F#m
   Just then I remembered,
          E6
   That a friend I knew
   D6
   Told me one thing,
                  C#7sus4 C#7
   I should never do.

Chorus:
            F#m
     Never, never
     Change your lovers
            B
     In the middle of the night,
          G#m75-            C#7
     Everything may look so different
            F#m
     In the early morning light.
     Never, never be too hasty
                 B
     When you’re groping in the dark.
                 G#m75-       C#7
     What you’re getting into may be
            F#m   C#7
     Just a lark.

               F#m
     Keep your cool
     And don’t change lovers
                 B
     When you’re feeling sorta high,
           G#m75-           C#7
     Sorta big and high and mighty
             F#m
     Without really knowing why.
     Let the heat wear off a little,
               B
     Give your man another chance
               G#m75-           C#7
     And don’t fall for someone else’s
              F#m    B C#
     Song and dance.

F#m
Sure, there was this guy
      E6/F#
Right next to me,
Bm7/F#
Mine just for the asking,
        F#m
He said he would be.
But to leave my man
          E6/F#
Seemed to me all too strange,
    Bm7/F#
And I’d say that I’m glad,
         F#m
I didn’t make the change.

   F#m
   Now our life is almost
          E6
   Like a Paradise,
   D6
   Let me pass on to you
          C#7sus4 C#7
   This advice.

Chorus:
               F#m
     Keep your cool
     And don’t change lovers
            B
     In the middle of the night,
             G#m75-            C#7
     You may feel a strong temptation,
           F#m
     The vibrations may be right.
     But who knows what’s gonna happen,
             B
     You may simply lose your cool
              G#m75-               C#7
     When you find it, you’ll find out
                F#m   C#7
     You were a fool.

            F#m
     Never, never
     Change your lovers
           B
     Under any midnight spell.
             G#m75-         C#7
     Take it easy, slow and easy,
          F#m
     Everything will turn out well.
     Let the sunshine of a new day,
               B
     And don’t move while you’re uptight
              G#m75-        C#7
     Changing lovers in the middle
            F#m    B C#
     Of the night.
