Tom Bodet
by Mark David Manders and Neuvo Tejas
from the album "Tales from the Couch Circuit"
Transcribed by Thomas Faulkenberry

C                       F         G                           C
You and I we've had our problems but I think the counselor's right
                      F         C                            C
A change in behavior patterns could save the romance in our lives
                      F             G                     C
So let's load up the stationwagon, drive as far as we can get
                         F        G                            C
Find ourselves a little Motel 6, and we'll make love like Tom Bodet


(chorus)
                               F        G                           C
That's right we'll leave the light on, you draw the curtain by the door
                            F               G
I'll day I love you in a monotone, mmm,mmm,mmm,
                           C
And we'll make love like before
                   F          G                 C
Bring a bottle of champagne, ice it down in the sink
                           F
Use a plastic cup for an ashtray,
G                                     C     A# C
And leave our trash for the maids to clean


I know you've had your reservations about our love in the past
But if we lower our expectations, maybe it won't seem like such a test
So why don't you lock that door behind you
Come here and lay down by my side
And we'll give a whole new meaning to the words "It's checkout time"

(repeat chorus)

(spoken)
I sure am glad we took our marriage counselors advice and came here to this 
Motel 6.  It's kinda like our second honeymoon.  I know it's not the Holiday 
Hilton, but there's color TV and cable, and free coffee in the morning, and, 
oh look, Karate Kid Part 3 is coming on HBO.  Well, we'd better get started, 
because you know how much I hate to miss the beginning of a movie.

That's right we'll leave the light on, you draw the curtain by the door
I'll say I love you in a monotone, mmm,mmm,mmm
And we'll make love on the floor
