(intro) GCDGCD#GEmCDGEmCDGCDG
Spirit on the water, darkness on the face of the deep,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAm
I keep thinking 'bout you, baby, and I can't hardly sleep.
DGCDG
I'm travelling by land, travelling through the dawn of the day,
CD#GEmAmDGCG
you're always on my mind, I can't stay away.
EAm
I'd forgotten 'bout you, then you turned up again,
B7EmAD
I always knew we were meant to be more than friends.
D7GCDG
When you're near, it's just as plain as it can be,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAm
I'm wild about you, gal, you ought to be a fool about me.
D7GCDG
Can't explain the sources of this hidden pain,
CD#GEm
you burned your way into my heart,
AmDGEmAm
you got the key to my brain.
D7GCDG
I've been trampling through mud praying to the powers above
CD#GEmAmDGCG
I'm sweating blood, you got a face that begs for love.
EAm
Life without you doesn't mean a thing to me,
B7EmAD
if I can't have you, I'll throw my love into the deep blue sea.
D7GCDG
Sometimes I wonder why you can't treat me right,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAm
you do good all day, and then you do wrong all night
D7G
When you're with me,
CDG
I'm a thousand times happier than I could ever say,
CD#GEmAmDGEm - Am
what does it matter, what price I pay ?
D7GCDG
They brag about your sugar, brag about it all over town
CD#GEmAmDGCG
put some sugar in my bowl, I feel like layin' down.
EAm
I'm as pale as a ghost holding a blossom on a stem.
B7EmAD
You ever seen a ghost? No? but you have heard of them.
D7GCDG
I see you there, I'm blinded by the colors I see,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAmD
I take good care of what belongs to me.
( GCDGC )
DGCDG
I hear your name ringing up and down the line,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAm
I'm saying it plain, these ties are strong enough to bind.
D7GCDG
Your sweet voice calls out from some old familiar shrine,
CD#GEm
I have no choice,
AmDGCG
can't believe these things would ever fade from your mind.
EAm
I could live forever with you perfectly,
B7EmAD
you don't ever have to make a fuss over me.
D7GCDG
From east to west, ever since the world began,
CD#GEm
I only mean it for the best,
AmDGEmAmD
I won't be with you any way I can.
( GCDGC )
D7GCDG
I've been in a brawl, now I'm feeling the wall,
CD#GEmAmDGEmAm
I'm going away, baby, I won't be back till fall.
DGCDG
High on the hill, you can carry all my thoughts with you,
CD#GEmAmDGCG
you know my will, this love could tear me in two.
EAm
I won't be with you in paradise, and it seems so unfair,
B7EmAD
I can't go to paradise no more, I killed a man back there.
D7GCDG
You think I'm over the hill, think I'm past my prime,
CD#GEm
let me see what you got,
AmDGEmAmD
we can have a whoppin' good time.
