Verse 1
Abmaj7          Dbmaj7        N.C.
        Come          closer

Abmaj7             Dbmaj7                          NC
      Feel             what you’ve been dyin for

Gb(addG#)                   Fm              Bbm                Bb*7   NC
            Don’t      be afraid, baby.     Touch it    and explode.

(Same pattern is followed for verse 2…)
Understand, understand that I love you
Ah, but more than that, I want you
Everybody always told me good things come to those who wait
But I’ve got so much on the menu, I just can’t, I just can’t…
(until…)

Abmaj7               Dbmaj7(sus4)    Dbmaj7
    I can’t wait baby,                 I can’t wait

    Abmaj7(addE)   Amaj7(addB)
baby,                     to wrap

Continues after the ad
Dbmaj7(addA)           Dbmaj7
my legs all around you girl

    Gb(addG)
Cuz sugar you know you’re just the kind of lover

Fm6
   I’ve been looking for

Bbm
Tonight why don’t we skip all the foreplay mama

Fb*7
    and just get down here on the floor?


Chorus
Ab              Dbmaj7

Ab              Dbmaj7
     Marvelous       Baby, baby, can’t you see?

Gb                                   Fm
    Anything you ever dreamed of        I’m willing to be

Bbm                                       Fb*7
   Tonight is gonna be scandalous cuz tonight I’m gonna be
your fantasy

(then comes a solo-type of part ("My dearest, my dearest”)
which follows this chord pattern, slightly different than before)

Abmaj7    Dbmaj7   N.C.  Abmaj7   Dmaj7    NC
Gb(addG#)   Fm  Bbm   Bb(?)

Verse 3 (same as Verse 1 except where indicated *)
Whisper, whisper a question
With my body, I’ll scream a reply
Ebm7*
Anything’s acceptable
Just ask me and I’ll try
To hell with hesitation
     Bb(?)*
To hell with reasons why

Outro
Essentially the same as Verse 1

Note: There are various keyboard riffs he plays
throughout the song which I will transcribe at a later date.
