From: Thad Williamson (thwilliamson@igc.apc.org) Let's Keep it Between Us. Words and Chords transcribed by Thad Williamson Intro: D Dm7/ D Dm7 D Dm7/ Let's keep it between us A7 Dm7 A7/ These people meddling in our affairs, they're not our friends D Dm7 Let's keep it between us A7 Dm7 A7 Before the last door locks and the fall begins Bm Bb D D/G#/ They'll tell you one thing, they'll tell me another G G/F# Em/ D Dm7/ Till we both don't know who to trust, oh darling D Dm7/ Let's keep it between us [Verse repeats chords] Let's keep it between us, we've been through too much together that they've never shared Let's keep it between us, they never had a word to say before now it's like they've always cared All we need is honesty, a little humility and trust, oh darling Let's keep it between us Bridge: Bm Bb/ I know we're not perfect D G/ Then again so what Bm Bb/ Ain't no reason for you to treat me like a snake D G/ Me to treat you like a slut F# Em/ A7 This whole thing's just making me angry Can we lay back for a moment? before this whole breakdown goes to far We can work it out between ourselves, or we're a whole lot worse than they say we are Backseat drivers don't know the feel of the wheel, but they sure do know how to make a fuss, oh darling let's keep it between us Can we lay back for a moment? before we wake up and find ourselves in game we've both all but lost They'll push easy answers and cheap solutions, I don't think we can afford the cost In the company of fools, it's best to move move to the back of the bus, oh darling Let's keep it between us. [Words vary widely: This is a cocktail with some of the words from Bonnie Raitt's recording worked in I think. Dylan often sang "Can we keep it.." instead of "Let's keep it.." in the Nov/Dec 1980 shows. Also, the Em chord in the verse can also be played as an A for a slightly different sound. I much prefer the Em.] Thad Williamson National Center for Economic and Security Alternatives (Washington)/ Union Theological Seminary (New York) 212-531-1935 http://www.northcarolina.com/thad
