And now I’m too lazy to type it up 
again for Em. Just do pretty much 
the same
things. For the beginning of the 
song it only has the top string of 
Em released
for 3 strums and then later in the 
song just do the same thing as with 
the Am.
LOL – I also don’t feel like 
listening to the song again to put 
all the asterisk
in there so if you hear something 
funny it probably should be one. I 
think there
is a C chord with some modification 
too somewhere near the end. Anyways 
I hope
this is good enough for ya’ll.


Em*                     Am*  G  
Over that new paved highway, 
                             Em
there is a house where love was 
made.

Em                        Am     
Not with screaming and touching, 
G                          
but with the records quietly 
      D
spinning.


           Em                      
And it was Aretha’s gold. And it 
      Am                 G
was the way you told me to just shut
 up and

                D
try and enjoy myself.


               Em                  
But that I can never do, so now 
  Am                 G
it’s ---?---blue, Oh it dreams and 
dreams

                         D
and dreams and dreams of you.



C     G         C                
So if you can’t treat her like a 
G          C         G           
woman then treat her like a baby 
Em
doll.

Continues after the ad
C                    G         C
        Oh, and just leave her 
       G             C            
in that bedroom where he watched 
  G
the summer


           Em
tumble and fall.

(guitar technically isn’t playing, 
just drums and effects)
Em                          
Over the gardens, through the 
  Am       G                
schools, she waits alone by a 
             Em
swimming pool.

Em                        Am   G
A storm is brewin’ in her soul. 
When did it start I like… to think… 
  D
I know.


                Em             
Well it was the summer night, a 
            Am
(?sweet as night just died?) She 
turned the


G                                  
corner and I knew all was about to 
D
change.



           Em                      
And then I kissed your mouth. I 
       Am                   G
felt your past somehow. Oh and your 
whole


                       D
life flashed before my eyes.

C     G           C              
So if you want to treat her like 
  G          C        G          
a woman then pick her up like a 
    Em
baby doll.

C                    G          
        And rock her gently and 
C                    G         C
tell her that you’re sorry and then 
be


G                  D
willing to let her go.


        C                          
Because you you’re as tameless as 
  G
an ocean. I want to love you but


Am                          Em
commotion, oh it ravages me whole.

       C                        
Oh and me I’m as dramatic as the 
 G
thunder. My lightning scares as she 
rolls


Am                                 
over. Oh yes she needs to get some 
Em
sleep.


During solo:         C   G   Am   Em

       C                           
Oh and you, you’ll be as famous as 
   G
an ocean. They’ll try to name you 
but


Am                               
commotion, oh, it’ll ravage them 
Em
whole.

    C                        
But me I’m as dramatic as the 
 G
thunder. My lightning scares as she 
rolls


Am                                 
over, oh yes she needs to get some 
Em*
sleep.
