Capo 1st fret
Standard (EADGBE)
I hear people laughin' on the corner by the square,
The neon flickers on my wall and I know you're out there.
I'm in your bed and listenin' for your footsteps down the hall,
And I'll be waitin' for you after the ball.
Chorus
After the ball is over, after the ball,
If you cannot stand, I've got a place for you to fall.
The blinds are drawn and I have turned the clock face to the wall.
I'll be waitin' for you after the ball.
Lovin' you is sweet addiction, I need only you.
Just as long as you come back, oh, do what you want to.
Give the night your laughter, but I'll have you after all.
I'll be waitin' for you after the ball.
