Verse
B
The guilty undertaker sighs,
D#m
The lonesome organ grinder cries,
G#m F#
The silver saxophones say I should refuse you.
Fb
The cracked bells and washed-out horns
F#
Blow into my face with scorn,
G#m
But it's not that way,
F#
I wasn't born to lose you.
[Chorus]
B D#m
I want you, I want you,
G#m F#
I want you so bad,
B
Honey, I want you.
[Verse]
B
The drunken politician leaps
D#m
Upon the street where mothers weep
G#m
And the saviors who are fast asleep,
F#
They wait for you.
Fb
And I wait for them to interrupt
F#
Me drinkin' from that broken cup
G#m
And ask me to
F#
Open up the gate for you.
[Chorus]
B D#m
I want you, I want you,
G#m F#
I want you so bad,
B
Honey, I want you.
[Bridge]
D#m
Now all my fathers, they've gone down,
G#m
True love they've been without it.
D#m
But all their daughters put me down
Fb F#
'Cause I don't think about it.
[Verse]
B
Well, I return to the Queen of Spades
D#m
And talk with my chambermaid.
G#m
She knows that I'm not afraid
F#
To look at her
Fb
She is good to me
F#
And there's nothing she doesn't see.
G#m
She knows where I'd like to be
F#
But it doesn't matter.
[Chorus]
B D#m
I want you, I want you,
G#m F#
I want you so bad
B
Honey, I want you.
[Verse]
B
Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit,
D#m
He spoke to me, I took his flute.
G#m
No, I wasn't very cute to him,
F#
Was I?
Fb
But I did it, though, because he lied
F#
Because he took you for a ride
G#m
And because tine was on his side
F#
And because I...
[Chorus]
B D#m
I want you, I want you,
G#m F#
I want you so bad
B
Honey, I want you.
