Rick James & Teena Marie - Fire and Desire Chords

_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ Wow, [Db] _
it's _ [Ebm] _ _ _
really good to see you [Bbm] again, baby. _
[Bb] _ _ [Ab] And I must admit, you're looking [Eb] very, very, [Gb] very nice these days.
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _
_ [Db] I guess life must be treating you well.
_ _ _ [Ebm] _
Oh, me?
_ _ _ Well, I've [Eb] just been doing the [Ab] same old thing I've always been doing.
You know, I've got a new lady now, but [Gb] it's 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 the cold way [Bbm] I used to act. _
[Ab] But more than that, I think of how you changed me with your love and [Gb] sensitivity. _
Remember when I used _ [Db] to_
Love _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
them and _ leave them.
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] _ _ That's what [Bbm] I used to [Ab] do. _ _
_ You _ used to abuse _ [Gb] them. _
_ _ _ _ _
[Bb] Then I laid eyes on you.
It [Db] 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. _ _
_ _ _ _ I was [Ab] cold as ice _
[Fm] _ [Ab] long ago, _ [Db] baby, baby. _ _
_ I _ _ _ _ [Ab] wasn't very, very, very nice, you [Bb] know. _
[Fm] Sugar, [Db] sugar, sugar. _
_ _ _ _ _
Then I kissed [Ab] your lips and you _ turned _ [Ab] on _ my fire, _ _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] baby.
_ [Ab] _ _ [Eb] And you [Gb] burned me up within your [Ab] _
flame.
_ _ _ _ [Bb]
Took me a [Db] little higher.
[Ab] _ _
_ _ _ Made me live again.
You turned on [Db] my _ fire, _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ baby.
_ [Ebm] _ _
_ _ Then you [Gb] showed me what [Bbm] love could [Ab]
do. _ _ _ _ _
Fire and [Eb] desire, _ _ baby.
_ [Gb] _ _
Feel [Ab] 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 this [F] 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 [Ab] used to do that?
_ _ _ _ [Fm] I [F] must have been crazy [Db] then.
_ [Gb] _ _
_ Remember when _ [Ab]
you [Db] used to. _ _
Love _ _ _ [Bb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
them and leave [Ebm] them. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Ab]
That's what [Bbm] I used to do. _
Use _ and abuse them. _ _ _ _
_ _ _ Then I laid eyes on you.
[Db] It was pain. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Gb] That [Bbm] was my pain to [Ab] face. _ _
_ _ With _ every measure.
_ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ Chased in your [Db] teardrop station. _ _
_ _ _ _ _
You were [Ab] cold as ice _ long ago.
[Db] _
Baby, _ _ baby.
I _ wasn't. _
[Db] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Fm] _ _ _ [Db] Sugar, sugar, sugar. _ _
Then I kissed your lips [Ab] and you.
You [Ab] turned on me.
Baby, _
_ _ _ _ [Db] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
baby.
_ _ [Gb] Then you showed [Bbm] me what I love.
[Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ [Bbm] _ _
Fire and [Gb] desire. _
_ _ _ Feeling good to you.
_ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Eb] _
You burned me up [Bbm] within [Ab] your flame.
_ _ _ _ [Fm] Fire [Bbm] _ and [Ab] desire. _
_ _ And _ _ we're both to [Db] blame. _
Both to blame. _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ebm] _
You know, _ _ _ _ _
[Gb] I [Eb] guess I think we both [Ab] say a little too much today. _ _ _ _
After all, _ _ [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.
_ _ [Ebm] _
Just put your arms around me and [Bbm] hold me like [Ab] you used to. _
_ Tell me that [Fm] _ _
[Ab] _ _ _ [Gb] everything's gonna be alright.
_ [Abm] _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
_ _ Put your arms around me.
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Ab] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Ebm] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ [Ab] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Bb] _ _ _
_ _ _ [Gb] _ _ _
_ [Ab] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ [Db] _ _ _ _
