[Verse 1]
Dm7                           
   The sweetest thing I've ever 
        Dm7 D#m7 Cm7
known
Was like a kiss on the collarbone
Cm7 C#m7 Dm7

                         Dm7 D#m7 
Soft caress of happiness
Cm7

The way you walk, your style of 
     Cm7 C#m7 Dm7
dress
                            Dm7 
I wish I didn't get so weak
D#m7 Cm7

Ooo, baby, just to hear you speak
Cm7 C#m7 Dm7

                           Dm7 
Makes me argue just to see
D#m7 Cm7

                                Cm7
How much you're in love with me


[Chorus 1]
            D#maj7     Dm7    Cm7
See, like a queen, a queen   upon
             Cm7 C#m7
 her throne
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7    Cm7 C#m7
thing I know
Continúa después del anuncio
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7    Cm7 C#m7
thing I know


[Verse 2]
Dm7                              
    I get mad when you walk away
Dm7 D#m7 Cm7

So I tell you "Leave", when I mean 
      Cm7 C#m7 Dm7
"Stay"
                               Dm7 
Warm as the sun dipped in black
D#m7 Cm7

Fingertips on the small of my back
Cm7 C#m7 Dm7

                   Dm7   D#m7 Cm7
More valuable than all   I    own
      Cm7 C#m7

Dm7                               
    Like your precious, precious, 
                    Dm7  D#m7 Cm7
precious, precious, precious dark
               Cm7 C#m7
 skin tone


[Bridge]
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7
thing I know
             F#m7
It was the...
Bm7 F#m7 Bm7 F#m7 Bm7         
Ah,               I tried to 
      F#m7 Bm7
explain
Gm7 C9  Gm7 C9 Gm7             
    Ah,        but baby, it's 
  C9   Gm7 C9
in vain


[Verse 3]
Dm7                              
    Speaking on my mother's phone
Dm7 D#m7 Cm7

The touching makes me think I'm 
     Cm7 C#m7 Dm7
grown
                          Dm7 D#m7 
Sweet prince of the ghetto
Cm7

                               Cm7 
Your kisses taste like amaretto
C#m7 Dm7

              Dm7 D#m7 Cm7       
Intoxicating, oh, so    
       Cm7 C#m7
intoxicating
Dm7                      Dm7 
   How sad, how sad that all 
D#m7   Cm7
things come to an end


[Chorus 2]
          D#maj7 Dm7          Cm7
But then again,      I'm, I'm not
         Cm7 C#m7
 alone
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7    Cm7 C#m7
thing I know
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet,        sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7
thing I know

     I           sometimes 
  Bm7               F#m7 Bm7
watch you in your sleep
Gm7 C9  Gm7 C9       Gm7       
    Ah,       excuse me if I 
  C9        Gm7 C9
get too cheesy,      hey
           Dm7           Dm7      
It was the sweet, sweet, sweetest 
C#m7    Cm7
thing I know...
