I want you    (video)    (clip)

 

    F - Am - Dm - C     - F ~

 

             F                                        Am

1. The guilty undertaker sighs, the lonesome organ grinder cries,

          Dm                                      C

    the silver saxophones say, I should refuse you.

          Bb                                                  - C

 The cracked bells and washed-out horns    blow into my face with scorn,

         Dm                                                C

    but it's not that way, I wasn't born to lose you.

        F               Am             Dm               C                    F

    I want you, I want you, I want you so bad, honey, I want you.

 

              F                                   Am

2. The drunken politician leaps upon the street where mothers weep

                 Dm                                                  C

    and the saviors who are fast asleep, they wait for you.

          Bb                                               C

    And I wait for them to interrupt me drinkin' from that broken cup

           Dm                                C

    and ask me to open up the gate for you.

        F               Am                     Dm               C                    F

    I want you, I want you, yes, I want you so bad, honey, I want you.

 

            Am            

    Now all my fathers, they've gone down,

    Dm    

    true love they've been without it,

         Am

    but all their daughters put me down

             Bb                     C         - C7

    'cause I don't think about it.

 

                   F                                                  Am

3. Well, I return to the Queen of Spades and talk with my chambermaid,

    Dm                                               C

    she knows that I'm not afraid to look at her.

Bb                                                 - C

    She is good to me and there's          nothing she doesn't see,

            Dm                                                         - C

    she knows where I'd like to be, but it doesn't       matter.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

        F               Am                     Dm               C                    F

    I want you, I want you, yes, I want you so bad, honey, I want you.

 

                      F

4. Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,

           Am

    he spoke to me, I took his flute,

   Dm                                          - C

    no, I wasn't very cute to him,          was I ?

         Bb                                              - C

    But I did it, though, because he lied     because he took you for a ride,

Dm                                                      - C

    and because tine was on his side,         and because I,

        F               Am                     Dm               C                   F

    I want you, I want you, yes, I want you so bad, honey, I want you.
