F
I hear people laughin' on the corner by the square,
The neon flickers on my wall and
I know you're out there.
    A#
I'm in your bed and listenin'
                             F
for your footsteps down the hall,
                           C7           F
And I'll be waitin' for you  after the ball.

Chorus:
F
After the ball is over, after the ball,
If you cannot stand,
I've got a place for you to fall.
      A#
The blinds are drawn and
I have turned the clock face to the wall.
         F             C7           F
I'll be waitin' for you  after the ball.

Loving you is sweet addiction,
I need only you
Just as long as you come back,
go do what you want to do
Give the night your laughter
but I'll have you after all
I'll be waiting for you, after the ball
