[Verse 1]
Eb13 Db13 Gm7 I'm working on gospel time these days Dm7 Gm7 Dm7 Gm7 Dm7 (The summer the summer this could be Gm7 Dm7 the cool part of the summer) Dbmaj7 Cm7 The sloe-eyed creature in the reckless room Bbmaj7 she's so severe Ebo Dm11 A wise child walks right out of here
[Chorus]
Dmaj7 Cmaj7-5 Cmaj7 I'm so excited I can barely cope Bmaj7 Amaj7-5 I'm sizzling like an isotope Emaj7 G#m7 Emaj7 I'm on fire so cut me some slack G#m7 Gmaj7 D6 Gmaj7 D6 First she's way gone then she comes back Gmaj7 D6 Gmaj7 F#m7 She's all business then she's ready to play Bmaj7 D#m11 G#sus2/C C#sus2 She's almost gothic in a natural way |Amaj7 Emaj7 |Amaj7-5 | * * * * * * * *
[Verse 2]
Eb13 Db13 Gm7 This house of de sire is built four square Dm7 Gm7 Dm7 Gm7 Dm7 Gm7 Dm7 (The city - the city the cleanest kitten in the city) Dbmaj7 Cm7 Bbmaj7 When she speaks it's like the slickest song I ever heard Ebo Dm11 I'm hanging on her every word Dmaj7 Cmaj7-5 Cmaj7 As if I'm not already blazed en ough Bmaj7 Amaj7-5 She hits me with the cryptic stuff Emaj7 G#m7 Emaj7 That's her style - to jerk me around G#m7 Gmaj7 D6/9 Gmaj7 Dmaj9 First she's all feel then she cools down Gmaj7 D6/9 Gmaj7 F#m7 She's pure science with a splash of black cat Bmaj7 D#m11 G#sus2/C C#sus2 She's almost gothic and I like it like that
