        [INTRO]
        | E  E7 | E  E7  | E  E7 | E  E7 | x2
         
        [VERSE 1]
              E
        I can see her lyin' back in her satin dress
             B7                       E
        In a room where ya do what ya don't confess
         
        [CHORUS]
        E             A
           Sundown ya better take care
             D                                E
        If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
        E             A
           Sundown ya better take care
             D                                E
        If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
         
        E
         
        [VERSE 2]
                   E
        She's been lookin' like a queen in a sailor's dream
                B7                        E
        And she don't always say what she really means
         
        [CHORUS]
        E              A
           Sometimes I think it's a shame
               D                           E
        When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
        E              A
           Sometimes I think it's a shame
               D                           E
        When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
         
        [Instrumental]
        | E   | E   | E
         
        [VERSE 3]
              E
        I can picture every move that a man could make
                B7                         E
        Getting lost in her lovin' is your first mistake
         
        [CHORUS]
        E             A
           Sundown ya better take care
             D                                E
        If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
        E              A
           Sometimes I think it's a sin
               D                              E
        When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
         
        [Instrumental]
        | E   | E   | E   | E   | x3

        [VERSE 4]
              E
        I can see her lookin' fast in her faded jeans
                B7                        E
        She's a hard lovin' woman, got me feelin' mean
         
        [CHORUS]
        E              A
           Sometimes I think it's a shame
               D                           E
        When I get feelin' better when I'm feelin' no pain
        E             A
           Sundown ya better take care
             D                                E
        If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
        E             A
           Sundown ya better take care
             D                                E
        If I find you've been creepin' 'round my back stairs
         
        E
         
        E              A
           Sometimes I think it's a sin
               D                              E
        When I feel like I'm winnin' when I'm losin' again
         
        [Outro]
        | E   | E   | E   | E   | x2
        | E   | E   | E
        (fade out)

B D DU DU catching the high strings in the up stroke or
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
D U U U D U
or
1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
B B U U D U D U
Neat way to document strums where t is up stroke treble strings T is down stroke trebble strings

so B T BU BU is like D D DU DU but with base or trebble notes indicate.

Some riff assuming capo 2
