Fire And Desire Chords by Rick James

_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] Wow, _
[Ebm] _ _ _ it's really good to see you again baby.
_ [Ab] _ _
_ And I must admit, you're [Bb] looking very, [Gb] very, very nice these days.
_ _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Db] _
I guess life must be treating you well.
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ Oh me?
_ _ _ Well I've just [Bbm] been doing the same [Ab] old thing I've always been doing, you know.
I've got a new lady now, and it's [Gb] a little different than it was when I was with you. _
[Bb] _ _ [Db] _ You know, I think back to when we met. _ _
[Ebm] The way I used to be, and that cold way [Bbm] I used to act.
_ [Ab] But more than that, I think of how you changed me with [Eb] your love and [Gb] sensitivity. _
Remember [Ab] when I used to_
_ [Db] _
Love _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ them and _ leave them.
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] _ _ That's what [F] I used to [Ab] do. _ _ _
_ Use _ and abuse _ _ [Gb] them. _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] Then I laid eyes on you.
[Db] It was _ _ pain _ before pleasure.
_ _ _ [Eb] _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
That was my claim to [Ab]
fame. _ _ _ _ _
With every measure, [Gb] _ baby. _ _ _
_ Tasted [Ab] _ [Gb] teardrop stains, [Db] yeah. _ _ _
_ _ _ I was [Ab] cold as _ [Fm] ice _ [Ab] long ago, [Fm] _
[Db] baby, _ baby. _ _
I _ _ _ _ wasn't [Ab] very, very, very nice, you know.
Sugar, [Db] sugar, sugar. _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Then I kissed [Ab] your lips and [Fm] you _ turned [Ab] _ on my _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] eyes. _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _ _
[Ab] _ _ [Eb] And you burned [Gb] me up within your [Ab] flame.
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _
Took [Eb] me a little higher. _ _
_ _ _ Made [Ab] me live again.
You [Db] turned on my _ _ _ _ _ fire, _ _ _ [Ebm] baby. _
_ _ Then [Gb] you showed me [Bbm] what love could [Ab] _
do. _ _ _ _ _
Fire and [Eb] desire, _ _ baby.
_ [Gb] _ _
[Ab] Feel it coming [Db] through. _
_ _ And I thank you, _ _ baby.
[Ebm] _ _
_ _ Oh, how I thank you, baby.
_ [Ab] _ _
_ You taught me [Bb] so much and you showed me so much [Db] love and [Ab] sensitivity. _
_ That since you've been gone, I don't think I've ever felt [F] this way before.
[Db] _ _
_ _ _ You know, it's funny how a man can change so [Ebm] quickly from a cold-blooded person,
thinking he's God's gift to women.
_ Remember how I [Ab] used to do that?
_ _ _ _ [Fm] I [F] must have been crazy [Db] then.
_ [Gb] _ _
_ Remember when _ [Ab]
you [Db] used to _ _ love _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
and leave [Ebm] them. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab] _
[Bbm] That's what I used to [Ab] do.
_ You can't abuse them.
Oh, _ _ _ _ _ _ then I laid eyes on you.
It [Db] was pain _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] that was [Bbm] my [Ab] claim to _ _ fame.
_ _ _ With _ [Eb] every measure,
_ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ Chased in your [Db] teardrop stains, yeah.
_ _ _ _ _ _
You were [Ab] cold as ice _ _ long [Bb] ago, _ _ [Db] baby, _ baby.
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Fm] _
_ _ [Db] Sugar, sugar, sugar, _ _ _ sugar.
Then I kissed your [Ab] lips and you
You turned [Db] on, you [Ab] turned _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ _ on.
Then [Gb] you showed [Bbm] me what I love [Bb] _
to do.
_ [Bbm] _
Fire and [Gb] desire,
_ _ _ _ Feeling [Ab] good to you, you turned [Db] on. _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [Eb] _
Hold me [Bbm] up within [Ab] your flame.
You burn, you [Fm] burn.
_ [Bbm] Fire and desire,
[Gb] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
And [Bb] we're both to [Db] blame, we're both to _ blame.
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [Ebm] _
You know, _ _ _ _
_ [Gb] I [Eb] guess I think we both [Ab] said a little too much today. _ _ _ _
After all, T, _ [Gb] _ _
you're kind of with somebody, and _ [Ab]
I'm kind of living with somebody.
_ [Db] _
_ But please do me a favor just before you go.
_ _ [Bbm] _ [Ebm] _
Just put your arms around me and [Bbm] hold me like you used to.
[Ab] _
_ _ Tell me, [Fm] Rick, _ [Ab] _ _ _ [Gb] everything is gonna be alright.
_ [Ab] _ _ [Gb] _
_ _ _ [F] _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ Put your arms around _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [Ebm] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ [Ab] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Fm] _ _ [Db] _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ me.
[Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
