Chords

Use a capo in fret 1 to play easier chords: Am F Em... (For that select "-1" in the transposing tool below.) As the last chord of a section and the first of the next often overlap I notated it on both positions. [Intro] Bbm Gb Fm x4 Bbm Gb Fm
             Bbm                  Gb Fm
(I got you stuck off the realness)

                   Bbm                     Gb                      Fm
It wasn't raining yet (yet), but it was definitely (but it was definitely)

          Bbm                         Gb  Fm
A little misty on that warm November night

                  Bbm                                   Gb        Fm
And my heart was pounding (pounding), my inner voice resounding (who)

         Bbm                        Gb                            Gb
Begging me to turn away but I just had to see your face to feel alive
[Pre-Chorus]
              Fm                        Gb
And then you casually walked in the room

            Fm                      Gb
And I was twisted in the web of my desire for you (and I was twisted)

         Fm                        Gb
My apprehension blew away; I only wanted you

             F7                              Bbm
To taste my sadness as you kissed me in the dark
[Chorus]
Bbm           Gb       Fm
Every time I feel the need

     Bbm          Gb      Fm
I envision you caressing me

        Bbm
And go back in time

      Gb         Fm        Bbm
To relive the splendor of you and I

        Gb      Fm         Bbm
On the rooftop that rainy night
[Verse 2]
           Bbm                            Gb          Fm
And so we finished the Moet (and started feeling liberated)

          Bbm                            Gb         Fm
And I surrendered as you took me in your arms (you took me in your arms)

          Bbm                                Gb                 Fm
I was so caught up in the moment I couldn't bear to let you go yet

            Bbm                             Gb                      Gb
So I threw caution to the wind and started listening to my longing heart
[Pre-Chorus]
              Fm                             Gb
And then you softly pressed your lips to mine

              Fm                                 Gb
And feelings surfaced I'd suppressed for such a long long time (and I was lifted)

            Fm                     Gb
And for a while I forgot the sorrow and the pain

            F7                                Bbm
And melted with you as we stood there in the rain
[Chorus]
Bbm           Gb       Fm
Every time I feel the need

     Bbm          Gb      Fm
I envision you caressing me

        Bbm
And go back in time

      Gb         Fm        Bbm
To relive the splendor of you and I

        Gb      Fm         Bbm
On the rooftop that rainy night

[Bridge]
 Gb               Faug              Bbm
Last night, last night I dreamed that I

                              Gb
Whispered the words "I love you, boy"

           Faug
And touched you so very
