(E  E7 on upstroke if you listen

the idea!)
 
[Verse 1]
      E
I can see her lyin' back in her 
satin dress
     B7                       
In a room where ya do what ya 
E
don't confess




 
[Chorus]
E             A
   Sundown ya better take care
     D                         
If I find you've been creepin' 
       E
'round my back stairs
E             A
   Sundown ya better take care
     D                         
If I find you've been creepin' 
       E
'round my back stairs

[Verse 2]
           E
She's been lookin' like a queen 
in a sailor's dream
        B7                    
And she don't always say what 
    E
she really means
 
[Chorus]
E              A
   Sometimes I think it's a 
shame
       D                       
When I get feelin' better when 
    E
I'm feelin' no pain
E              A
   Sometimes I think it's a 
shame
       D                       
When I get feelin' better when 
    E
I'm feelin' no pain
 
[Instrumental]
| E   | E   | E
 
[Verse 3]
      E
I can picture every move that a 
man could make
        B7                    
Getting lost in her lovin' is 
     E
your first mistake
 
[Chorus]
E             A
   Sundown ya better take care
     D                         
If I find you've been creepin' 
       E
'round my back stairs
E              A
   Sometimes I think it's a sin
       D                     
When I feel like I'm winnin' 
         E
when I'm losin' again
 
[Instrumental]

[Verse 4]
      E
I can see her lookin' fast in 
her faded jeans
        B7                     
She's a hard lovin' woman, got 
   E
me feelin' mean
 
[Chorus]
E              A
   Sometimes I think it's a 
shame
       D                       
When I get feelin' better when 
    E
I'm feelin' no pain
E             A
   Sundown ya better take care
     D                         
If I find you've been creepin' 
       E
'round my back stairs
E             A
   Sundown ya better take care
     D                         
If I find you've been creepin' 
       E
'round my back stairs
 
E
 
E              A
   Sometimes I think it's a sin
       D                     
When I feel like I'm winnin' 
         E
when I'm losin' again
