CHORDS
Playing a regular G minor chord may not fit the feel of the song, even
though the keyboard clearly has the minor 3rd repeatedly.
I'd suggest playing a G5 or G(no 3rd) to leave space for the singer to
make those "bluesy" bends in the melody.

[Intro]
| G5 | % | % | % |
| G5 | % | % | % |
[Verse 1]
G5 I know you're a lonely woman and I love you G5 But someone else is waiting and he owns you Bb C Bb C If he should ever wake up, make sure that your story is straight love
[Chorus]
Em C D G5 If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name Em C D G5 And if you walk in your sleep forget where you came
[Verse 2]
G5 Walking every night here in the shadows G5 So afraid that sometime he may follow Bb C There's always the chance he'll find us Bb C I don't need to remind you
[Chorus]
Em C D G5 If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name Em C D G5 And if you walk in your sleep forget where you came
[Verse 3]
G5 Love is so much sweeter when it's borrowed G5 I'll feel a little easier tomorrow Bb C Bb C Don't give our secret away, be careful what you say
[Chorus]
Em C D G5 If you talk in your sleep don't mention my name Em C D G5 And if you walk in your sleep forget where you came
[Outro]
G5 Forget where you came, now G5 Forget where you came G5 Don't mention my name G5 Don't mention my name G5 Forget where you came
