Delicious Chords by Linda Perhacs

[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ It's the silk and the sound and the cold creasing _ [Fm] down of a [D#m] long blade of _ _ [B] grass, tracing and
cooling _ _ _ _ down [D#m] _
a bare leg. _ _ _ _
It's [Fm] the [F#] soles of your [C#] feet finding touches to breathe on [Fm] the bare [F#] naked [B] _ ground, each
step a puddle.
_ _ So _ _
[D#m] _ _ soft a _ sound _ _ like _ [B] _ _
sandals [F#] in [C#] high _ _ _ _ _
[G#] _ _ heels, climbing [C#] a [G#m] waterfall, _ _ _ _ like _ [B] sandals _ _ _ [C#] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _ _
climbing [F#] a [G#] waterfall. _ _
Oh _ _ _ [E] how _ _ delicious, _ _ _ _ _ _ oh how I _ want _ this _ _ _ _ _ [F#] _
[C#] now. _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ It's the slip into _ sleep with the memories you _ [Fm] hold _ [F#] burrowed [B] and _ deep, turned like _ pages _
that break [D#m] _ _ and _ release.
_ _ _ _ It's the [Fm] first gust of [C#] _ drops [Fm] when it's ripening to [C#] rain and the [Fm] [F#] flavor is [B] _
warm, scented like
_ leather, _ _ _ dusty [D#m] and _ _ brown. _ _ _ _ _
Like [B] _ [F#] hot _ desert [C#] _ wind _ [G#] _ _ _ _
teasing _ _ _ along your skin, _ [F#] like _ _ hot desert _ [C#] _ wind _ _ _ [G#] _ _ teasing _
_ [C#] _ [G#m] along your _ skin.
_ _ [E] Oh how _ delicious, _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] oh how I _ [B] want this _ _ _ now.
_ _ _ [C#] _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ It's the _ narrowing instant when I look across at you and I wish [F#] I could [B] _ be _ motion _ naked, _ _ _
simple _ [D#m] _ and sure. _
_ _ _ _ It's the [C#] murmur of growth whenever [Fm] I'm with [C#]
you and I [Fm] don't [D#m] want to hide in simple [B] _ _ elastic _
_ _ protecting _ [D#m] _ _ _
_ skin. _ _ _ _
If [F#] I _ _ _ _ _
[C#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _ _
_ stand so [G#m] before _ you, _ _ _ if [F#] I _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ [C#] _ _ _
_ [G#] _ _ _ _ _ _
stand so [G#m] before _ _ you.
_ _ _ [E] Oh how [B]
delicious, [E] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ [E] _
oh how I want _ this, _ [B] _ _ _ _ [E] _
oh how I _ [B] want you.
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Now, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ now. _ _
