[C] [Am]
[C] [Am]
[C] [Am]
[C] [Am] Music [C] has [Am] charms they [C] say
But [Am]
[Gm] in some people's hands
[Fm] It [Db]
becomes [Fm] a [Db] savage beast
[Ab] Can't [Bb] they control [Ab] it?
Why [Bb] don't they hold [C] it back?
[Am] You see, [C] my [Am] friend and [C] me
[Am] Don't have [Gm] an easy day
[Fm]
[Db] And at night [Fm] we [Db] dance, not [Eb] fight
[Ab] We [Bb] need the [Ab] energy, if [Bb] not the sympathy
[Eb] But [Ab] I'm brutalized by [Eb] face
And [Ab] terrorized by treble
[Eb] I'm open [Fm] to change my [Eb] mood
But I [Fm] always get caught in the [G] middle
And I get [F] tired of [G] DJs
Why is it always what he plays?
I gotta push right through
I gotta tell him to
Tell him to play us, play [C] us a slow
[Am] song

[C]
[Am] Am [Gm] I the only one
[Fm]
Who [Db] wants a [Fm] strong and [Db] silent [Eb] sound
[Ab] So pick me up and [Bb] undress [Ab] me
Lay me [Bb] down and caress [C] me
I [Am] feel [C]
you touch [Am] my [C] hand
[Am] And [Gm] whisper in my ear
[Fm] Ask [Db] me how [Fm] I'm [Db] feeling [Eb] now
[Ab] And I want to [Bb] get near you
[Ab] But I can't [Bb] even hear [Eb] you
But [Fm] this is a fine [Eb] romance
If we have [Fm] to be so demanding
[Eb] We need [Fm] just one more [Eb] dance to
Live head [Ab] over understanding
[F] And I get [G] tired [Dm] of [G]
DJs
Why is [F] it always what he [G]
plays?
I gotta push right through
I gotta tell him to
Tell him to play us, play us [C] a slow [Am]
