Blanket On The Ground

                Bb
Intro: 2/2  ‖       |   𝄎   ‖

                                 Bb
1. Come and look out through the win-dow 
                                 C7
   That big old moon is shin-ing down
                           F
   Tell me now don’t it re-mind you 
                        Bb
   Of a blan-ket on the ground |  𝄎  | 

                                   Bb
2. Re-mem-ber back when love first found us
                            C7
   We’d go slip-pin’ out of town
                              F
   And we’d love be-neath the moon-light
                        Bb
   On a blan-ket on the ground |  𝄎  | 

      Bb                               Eb
Chorus: I’ll get the blan-ket from the bed-room
                                     Bb
        And we’ll go walk-ing once a-gain
                                 F
        To that spot down by the riv-er
                                      Bb
        Where our sweet love first be-gan |  𝄎  | 

      Bb                     Eb
        Just be-cause we are mar-ried
                                   Bb
        Don’t mean we can’t slip a-round
                                      F
        So let's walk out through the moon-light 
                                    Bb
        And lay the blan-ket on the ground |  𝄎  |  
    
                        C
        |     |     |     |  𝄎  |

3. Ooh re-mem-ber how ex-cit-ed
                                D7
   We used to get when love was young
                              G
   That old moon was our best bud-dy
                                C
   We couln’t wait for night to come |  𝄎  |  
 
                             C
4. Now you know you still ex-cite me
                             D7
   I know you love me like I am
                                  G 
   Just once more I’d wish you’de love me
                          C
   On the blan-ket on the ground |  𝄎  |  

       C                               F
Chorus: I’ll get the blan-ket from the bed-room
                                     C
        And we’ll go walk-ing once a-gain
                                 G
        To that spot down by the riv-er 
                                      C
        Where our sweet love first be-gan

       C                     F
        Just be-cause we are mar-ried
                                   C
        Don’t mean we can’t slip a-round
                                      G
        So let's walk out through the moon-light
                                    C
        And lay the blan-ket on the ground |  𝄎  |
