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

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

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

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

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