[Intro]
D7
G
 
[Verse 1]
   G
As I got on a city bus and found a vacant seat,
  G
I thought I saw my future bride walking up the street,
  G
I shouted to the driver, hey conductor, you must
     G
Slow down, I think I see her. Please let me off this bus.
 
[Chorus]
  G
Nadine, honey is that you?
    C9                     G
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
          D7
Seem like every time I see you darling
C7                        G
you got something else to do.
 
[Verse 2]
  G
I saw her from the corner when she turned and doubled back,
    G
And started walkin' toward a coffee colored Cadillac.
      G
I was pushin through the crowd tryin' to get to where she's at.
          G
And I was campaign shouting like a southern diplomat.
 
[Chorus]
  G
Nadine, honey is that you?
    C9                       G
Oh, Nadine, honey, where are you?
           D7
Seem like every time I catch up with you
C7                  G
you up to something new
 
[Verse 3]
G
Downtown searching for her, looking all around.
        G
Saw her getting in a yellow cab heading uptown.
  G
I caught a loaded taxi, paid up everybody's tab.
          G
Flipped a twenty dollar bill and told him catch that yellow cab.
 
[Chorus]
  G
Nadine, honey is that you?
    C9                     G
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
          D7
Seem like every time I catch up with you
C7                  G
you up to something new
 
[Verse 4]
G
She moves around like a wayward summer breeze,
G
Go, driver, go, go on, catch her for me please.
G
Moving through the traffic like a mounted cavalier.
        G
Leaning out the taxi window, trying to make her hear.
 
[Chorus]
  G
Nadine, honey is that you?
    C9                     G
Oh, Nadine, honey, is that you?
          D7
Seem like every time I see you darling
C7                  G
you up to something new
