The Quiet One

Am Am Dm

[Verse]
             Am             Am7           Am
What kind of drugs have you done tonight?
                    Am          Am7        Am
'Cause you've got a face like a lava light
                  Dm            Dm6          Dm
Gong bell and the bats in the belfry banging
                   Am           Am7            Am
Yeah, I can't ever tell what it is that you're thinking
         E                         (E7)
She gets upset by the setting sun
       Am            Am7         Am
I like you my little quiet one

[Chorus]
Am F   E
I like you
                   Am        F   E
I like when you're quiet
Am F   E
I like you
                   Am        F   E
I like when you're quiet

[Verse]
           Am                 Am7         Am
Chili chow chowder that's the hardest partest
            Am                   Am7          Am
And I never knew that you were a performance artist
                   Dm             Dm6    Dm
And there's a mean streak in your flower basket
         Am                Am7             Am
I had a question but I could never ask it
             E                        (E7)
Yeah, I'm as friendly as they come
           Am            Am7         Am
But I like you my little quiet one

[Chorus]
Am F   E
I like you
                   Am        F   E
I like when you're quiet
Am F   E
I like you
                   Am        F   E
I like when you're quiet

[Bridge]
F
    I'm gonna tie you up
C
    and then cradle you
G
    To keep you here
C       C7
    for me my dear
   F                         C
I wanna make you a part of my collection but I
 G                                       C
Won't disturb you or wonder or fumble or touch you
          E                  Am     F     E
No matter how bad this never ends,
           Am     F    E
this never ends

[Break]
Am F E
Am F E

[Verse]
               Am        Am7         Am
So join in the circle of our conversation
                    Am         Am7       Am
Do you need to know me to know my desperation
                  Dm              Dm6           Dm
I've given up the clothes and the chairs and the house
                       Am          Am7          Am
But I need someone who cares if I'm not around
                   E
You can measure my language by the tongue
               Am
But me, I like you my little quiet one

[Chorus]
Am F   E
I like you
                   Am (single strum)
I like when you're quiet
