[Intro]
 Bb Dm Gm7 C Ab

[Verse 1]
 Ab                          Eb
We have to take our chances, we have to keep it down
   Fm7               Eb           Ab
We have to steal our kisses when nobody's around
    C      Fm       Cm7         Db
We have to hide the tenderness inside
   Ab         C     Fm        Cm7              Bb Eb
To make love on the sly, you say it's for the better

[Verse 2]
 Ab                             Eb
We have to speak in riddles to cloak the things we say
 Db                    Eb              Ab
We have to watch our whispers, not to give ourselves away
    C       Fm      Cm7           Db
We have to run in shadows in the dark
  Ab        C    Fm          Cm7        Db
We have to stand apart when they see us together

[Refrain 1]
 C                    F                Bb                           C
So we're livin' like silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night
 Am          Dm           Bb                C
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
       F         Am      Bb               Db
We're silent partners, never come to the light
 F                     Dm
It'll never be right, whatever we do
     Bb                   F                  C      F
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you

[Music]
Bb Dm Gm7 C Ab

[Verse 3]
 Ab                         Eb
We have to keep the secret burnin' on our lips
       Db              Eb              Ab
We'd both be hurting someone if they caught us here like this
   C       Fm         Cm7            Db
We have to bear this burden that we share
 Ab           Fm         Cm7          Eb
Knowin' our affair just can't go on forever

[Refrain 2]
 C                     F        Am7      Bb                          C
And we're livin' like silent partners, sneakin' like thieves in the night
 Am7         Dm7    Bb                           C
Can't let it show, gotta keep it low, so no one knows
 F             Fm       Bb                Db
We're silent partners, never come to the light
 F                      Dm
It'll never be right, whatever we do
 Bb                           Gm                   Dm
You need me too much and I'm just not givin' up on you
