Lyrics    /    chords

Lights turned way down low
And Music is soft and slow
With someone you love so
That's where it's at, yeah

You're making not a sound
No one else around
That's where it's at, yeah

Let me tell
Your heart beatin' fast
You're knowin' that time won't last
But a-hopin' that it lasts

That's where it's at, oh yeah
That's where it's at, pretty baby
That's where it's at, oh yes it is
That's where it's at, pretty baby
That's where it's at, oh yeah

Let me tell just one thing
To say it's time to go
and she says "Yes I know"
But stay just one minute more

That's where it's at, pretty baby
That's where it's at, I know that's where it's at
That's where it's at, pretty baby
That's where it's at
