Chorus 1:
 
B7                                   E7   D7   B7
 Sneaking s Sally through the alley, ooh, ooh, ooh.
B7                                   E7   D7   B7

Verse 1:
 
B7                                E7 D7                        B7
 Sneaking Sally through the alley,    tryin' to keep her outta sight.
B7                                E7 D7                  B7
 Sneaking Sally through the alley,    when up popped the wife.
 
         B7
I said, "I can't find nothing wrong with being friends, 'cos sometimes;
E7 D7                        B7
    She lets me use her car".
              B7
She said; "If you can't find, nothing wrong in your mind,
             E7 D7              B7
You'd better;    find something wrong with hers".
 
Bridge 1:
 
   E7         A7        E7
So I began to try to ex-plain,
        D7                       A7                    E7
That it just wasn't, just wasn't, just wasn't what she thought.
 
    B7
Now I'd better find something to do with my time;
     E7 D7              B7
Fact is; I've just been caught.
 
Chorus 2:
 
B7                                   E7   D7   B7
 Sneaking s Sally through the alley, ooh, ooh, ooh.
B7                                   E7   D7   B7

B7
 Tryin' to talk double talk, get myself in trouble talk,
                   E7   D7  B7
Catching myself in lies.

 Mama, just look at me as if I was crazy;

    She didn't even bat an eye-lid.
