                G

1. Well, I fell to sweet temptation,

 

    a victim to the devils vow,

              D7

    and most of my dreams got lost in the bargain,

                  C                            G

    I could use a little comfort now.

 

                  G

2. When I get love life’s inspiration

 

    it just knocks me flat on my face,

    Bm

    you came along to pick me up,

                   C                                  D7

    and I’m looking for more than a taste.

 

                   G

I need a sweetheart healer like you,

                  D7                     G

it’s been a long time over due,

                 G

I looked around, and around, and around, and around

             D7                            G

for a sweetheart healer like you.

 

+  G ~

 

                    G

3. Now my friends and close relations

 

    say I ought to take it slow,

               D7

    but I can’t subdue what I’m feeling for you,

                  C                    G

    and it’s time to let it show.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

                         G

4. There’s no need for moderation,

 

    now I think it’s plain to see,

       Bm

    I got the desire to unlock the chains,

                   C                        D7

    and I’m handing you the key.

 

                   G

I need a sweetheart healer like you,

                  D7                     G

it’s been a long time over due,

                 G

I looked around, and around, and around, and around

             D7                            G

for a sweetheart healer like you.
