Selection chords: Sofia Davis

F#
The guilty undertaker sighs,
    A#m
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
    D#m                            C#
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
    B
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
C#
Blow into my face with scorn,
         D#m
But itʼs not that way,
                 C#
I wasnʼt born to lose you.
  F#           A#m
I want you, I want you,
  D#m          C#
I want you so bad,
              F#
Honey, I want you.

    F#
The drunken politician leaps
 A#m
Upon the street where mothers weep
        D#m
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
    C#
They wait for you.
      B
And I wait for them to interrupt
C#
Me drinkinʼ from that broken cup
    D#m
And ask me to
            C#
Open up the gate for you.
  F#           A#m
I want you, I want you,
  D#m          C#
I want you so bad,
              F#
Honey, I want you.

    A#m
Now all my fathers, theyʼve gone down,
D#m
True love theyʼve been without it.
    A#m
But all their daughters put me down
       B                 C#
ʼCause I donʼt think about it.

F#
Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
    A#m
And talk with my chambermaid.
D#m
She knows that Iʼm not afraid
   C#
To look at her
B
She is good to me
C#
And thereʼs nothing she doesnʼt see.
    D#m
She knows where Iʼd like to be
C#
But it doesnʼt matter.
  F#           A#m
I want you, I want you,
  D#m          C#
I want you so bad
         F#
Honey, I want you.

F#
Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
   A#m
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
D#m
No, I wasnʼt very cute to him,
C#
Was I?
      B
But I did it, though, because he lied
C#
Because he took you for a ride
    D#m
And because tine was on his side
    C#
And because I...
  F#            A#m
I want you,  I want you,
  D#m          C#
I want you so bad
         F#
Honey, I want you.
