Wow,
[Db] it's [Ebm]
really good to see you again, baby.
[Fm] [Ab] And I must admit, you're looking [Eb] very, very, [Gb] very nice these days.
[Bb] [Db] I guess life must be treating you well.
[Ebm] Oh, me?
Well, I've just been [Bbm] doing the same old [Ab] thing I've always been doing, you know.
I've got a new lady now, and it's a [Gb] 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 the cold way I [Bbm] used to act.
[Ab] But more than that, I think how you changed me [Eb] with your love [Gb] and sensitivity.
Remember when [Ab] I used to
[Db] Love them and leave them.
[Ebm]
[Gb]
That's what I [Bbm] used to do.
[Ab]
Use and abuse them.
[Gb]
Then [Bb] 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] teardrop [F] stains, [Db] yeah.
[Ab]
Long ago, [Fm] baby, [Db] baby.
I wasn't [Ab] very, very, very [Db] nice, you [Bb]
know.
[Db] Sugar, sugar, sugar.
Then I kissed your [Ab] lips and you [Fm] turned [Ab]
on my
[Db]
[Ebm] [Eb]
[Gb] [Bbm] Up within your [Ab] flame.
[Bb] Took [Eb] me a little higher.
[Gb] Made me live [Ab] against you, [Ab] turned on [Db] my
[Ebm] Then [Gb] you showed me [Bbm] what a love could [Ab] do.
[Fm] [Ab] Fire [Eb] and desire, baby.
[Gb] [Ab] Feel it coming [Db] through.
And I thank you, baby.
[Ebm] Oh, thank you, baby.
You [Ab] taught me so much and you showed me so much [Db] love.
And since [Ab] you've been gone, I don't think I've ever felt this [Fm] 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 a woman.
Remember how I used [Ab] to do that.
[Bb] I must have been crazy then.
[Db]
[Gb] Remember when [Ab] you used [Db]
to
Love them and leave [Ebm] them.
[Ab] That's what I [Bbm] used to do.
You ran amused then.
Oh.
[Ab]
Then I laid eyes on you.
[Db] It was pain.
[Db]
[Ebm]
[Gb] That was [Bbm] my plain [Ab] good thing.
With a measure.
[Db]
[Ab] Chased in your teardrop stains, yeah.
You were [Ab] cold as ice.
Long ago.
[Db] Baby, baby.
I [Db] wasn't.
[Ab]

[Bbm] could do.

And [Db] I've
[Ebm]
[Eb] [Bbm] seen [Ab] you play.
You've played.
You've [Fm] played.
[Bbm] Fight till the rain seeps out.
[Gb]
And [Bb] we're both to [Db] blame.
Both to blame.
[Ebm] You know,
[Eb] I guess I think we both [Ab] say a little too much today.
No.
[Fm] [Ab] After all, [Gb]
you're kind of with somebody
and
[Ab] kind of living with somebody.
[Db] But please do me a favor just before [Ab] you go.
What is it, baby?
[Ebm] Just put your arms around me
[Eb] and hold me like you used to.
I won't [Ab] hold you tight.
