COME A LITTLE BIT CLOSER Time 4/4 Tenor Bb Bass: G# Class: Bb

1 4 1 *
In a little cafe on the other side of the border
1 4 1 *
She was sitting there giving me looks that made my mouth water
4 * * *
So I started walking her way, she be-longed to Bad Man Jose
5 * 1 4 5
And I knew, yes I knew, I should leave, then I heard her say - ay - ay


CHORUS:

5 1 4 5 4
.. Come a little bit closer, you're my kind of man, so big and so strong
1 4 5 1 4 5 4
Come a little bit closer, I'm all a-lone, and the night is so long__________


1 4 1 *
So we started to dance, in my arms she felt so in-viting
1 4 1 *
And I just couldn't resist, a-just a-one little kiss so ex-citing
4 * * *
Then I heard the guitar player say: Va-moose , Jose's on his way
5 * 1 4 5
And I knew , yes I knew, I should run, but then I heard her say - ay - ay


1 4 1 *
Then the music stopped, when I looked, the cafe was empty
1 4 1 *
And I heard Jose say: Man, you know you're in trouble plenty
4 * * *
So I dropped the drink from my hand, and out through the window I ran
5 * 1 4 5
And as I rode a-way, I could hear her say to Jos - e - yay - yay
