I wanna be loved (1950) (video)

G Bm

1. I wanna be loved with inspiration,

Em E

I wanna be loved starting tonight,

Am D D7 G - C - G - D

instead of merely holding conversation, hold me tight !

G Bm

2. I wanna be kissed until I tingle,

Em E

I wanna be kissed starting tonight,

Am D D7 G - C - G

embrace until our heartbeats intermingle, wrong or right !

C E

+ I feel like acting my age, I'm past the stage of merely turtle-doving,

A A7 D - D7

I'm in no mood to resist, and I insist the world owes me a loving !

G Bm

3. I wanna be thrilled to desperation,

Em E

I wanna be thrilled starting tonight,

Am D D7 G - C - G

with every kind of wonderful sensation, I wanna be loved !

C E

+ I feel like acting my age, I'm past the stage of merely turtle-doving,

A A7 D - D7

I'm in no mood to resist, and I insist the world owes me a loving !

+ repeat verse 3
