1. Love is
a stranger in an open car
F
to tempt you in and
drive you far away.

Love is a stranger in an open
car
F
to tempt you in and
drive you far away.
F

And I want you, and I want
you, and I want you so, it’s an obsession.

2. Love is a danger of a
different kind
F
to take you away
and leave you far behind.
C
And love, love, love is a dangerous drug,
you have to receive it,
F
and you still
can’t get enough of the stuff.
F
It’s savage and it’s cruel and it shines like destruction,
F
comes
in like the flood and it seems like religion.
F
It’s noble and it’s brutal, it
distorts and deranges,
F
C
and
it drenches you up and you’re left like a zombie.
F
C
And I want you, and I want
you, and I want you so, it’s an obsession.
F
3. It’s quilt edged, glamorous and sleek by
design,
you
know it’s jealous by nature, false and unkind.
C
It’s hard and restrained and
it’s totally cool,
F - C
it touches and it teases as you stumble in the debris.
F
C
And I want you, and I want
you, and I want you so, it’s an obsession.
F
C
And I want you, and I want
you, and I want you so, it’s an obsession.
