you
[G] I want you
I want you
I want you
I want you
[C] Were you so [B] generous and [Bm] inarticulate
[G] I want you
[C] It's the [B] stupid details
that my [G] heart is breaking for
[C] The way your [B] shoulders shake
and what [Bm] they're shaking for
[G] I want you
[C] It's knowing that [B] he knows you now
[Bm] after only [G] guessing
It's [C] the thought of [B] him
I'm undressing [Ebm] you
of you undressing
[Em]
I [G] want you
[C] I want you
It's our son [B] tattooed compliment [Em] You're weak
[G] I want you
[C] And you were [B] fool enough
to [Ebm] love it
when I said
[Em] What
[G] [C] I said
[B]
[G] I want you
I want [C] you
I want you
I think I heard [B] you
It's just like [Em] the dark
[Gb] It [G] scares you with [Cm] less
but in [A] time you see
things [Em] clear and stark
[G] I want [C] you
Go on and [Am] hurt me [B] then we'll
let it drop
[G] I want you
[C] I'm [G] afraid
[B] I won't know
[E] where to start
[Em] [G] I want you
[C] But it seems [B] to say
I [Em] cried for you
[G] I want [Em] you [C] I wonder
you the [B] things you [E] did
that we do too
[Gm] I [G] want you [C] But it
will [D] [B] be useless
for all it [G] means to you
I want you
[C] I wonder [Bb] [B] if he
pleases you
more than I do
[G] I want you
[C] Did you call his name [Em] out
as if he's [G] insane
I want you
[C] No no not darling
[B] not [Em] with that flame
[G] [C] I want [B] you
[Cm]
[E] I want you
You've had your fun
you don't get well no more
I want you
No one who wants you
who wants you more
[Gm]
[Em] [G]
[C] [B] I [Em] want you
[G]
[C] Every night [B] when I
go up [Em] to bed when [G] I wake up
[C] when I [B] put on that makeup
[E] I say a little prayer for you
[C]
I [B] [Em]
[G] want you
[N] I'm gonna say it once
again till I instill it
I know
[G] I know
[Ab]
I know I know
I'm [Em] gonna feel this [N] way
until you kill it I
want you
I want you I
I want you
I want you
[G]
