Don’t get me started (video)

G - Em - C - D (2x)

G C

1. Well, it was January, not the Fourth of July,

D

a snow white morning and a clear blue sky,

G C D

we were miles from nowhere, but somehow or other love found us.

G C

We were laughing and looking in each other’s hearts,

D

talking and touching, tryin' so hard,

G C D

not to notice what was goin' on all around us.

G Em

There were fireworks flashing, thunder clappin',

C D

big waves crashin' on the shore,

G Em

there were church bells ringing and angels singin',

C D

all gathered 'round heaven's door.

C Bm C D

Then we kissed and I saw the light, I could go on about this all night,

G Em C - D

hey, darlin', if you don't want to hear how the waters parted,

G

don't get me started.

+ G - Em - C - D

G C

2. Naw, don't get me started, I'm warnin' you,

D

unless you got an extra week or two,

G C D

you know darn well, how I get when you get me going.

G C

Naw, don't get me talkin' about us,

D

about the day we fell in love,

G ´ C D

unless your longin' for dose of strong emotion.

+ CHORUS + G - Em - C - D (2x)

+ Then we kissed and I saw the light,

I could go on about this all night !

Hey, darlin', if you don't want to hear how the waters parted,

G - Em - C - D

G - Em - C - D

don't get me started,
