[Intro]
Am Bm
Am Em
[Verse]
Am You and I together Bm With nothing showing at all Am In a darkened cinema Em I'll give you pleasure in the stalls Am Wanna give you tenderness Bm And my affection too Am If it's through clenched teeth Em That's what you driven me to
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Want us to be lovers C Want us to be friends Em C Want it like it's the living end
[Chorus]
D Em Keep me away from her D Em Keep me away from her D Em Keep me away from her
[Verse]
Am With your kittens Bm On the patchwork quilt Am Oh no, what am I doing here Em In the house Jack Kerouac built? Am There's white magic Bm And bad rock and roll Am Your friend there says Em He's the gatekeeper to my soul
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm The velvet curtains C The Chinese bell Em C With friends like these you're damned as well
[Chorus]
Em D Keep me away from her Em D Keep me away from her Em D Keep me away from her
[Verse]
Am Shake off your despondency Bm And your country girl act Am You're reading me poetry Em That's Irish and so black Am I know you're warm Bm The warmest person alive Am But are you warm Am Deep down inside?
[Pre-Chorus]
Bm Want us to be lovers C Want us to be friends Em C I want it like the world crumbles and then it ends
[Chorus]
Em D Keep me away from her Em D Keep me away from her Em D Keep me away from her

[Outro]
Bm Am Baby, you're on the road, Bm Em You're on the road with a bad crowd Bm Am And baby, I'm lonely Bm Em You're on the road with a bad crowd
