_ [A] _ _ _ I [D] just want [A] to satisfy you, though you're not mine, I can't deny [E] it.
[A] Don't you hear me talkin', baby?
[E] Love me [A] now or I'll go crazy.
[C#m] [A] Oh, [D] you [E] sweet [G] thing.

You're looking [D] down my hole, and I [A] know I [D] _ [A] won't be at all.
I'm only what you make me, baby.
Don't walk [D] away, don't be so [E] shady.
Don't want [D] your mind, don't want your [A] money.
These words I [D] said, they may sound funny, [C#m] but
[A] Oh, [D] you sweet [E] [G] thing.
[A] _ [A] Oh, you know you're my everything.
_ _ [C#m] [A] Oh, [E] sweet [G] thing.
[A] _ _ [C#m] [A] Oh, you know you're my _ everything.
_ Yes, _ [C#m] _ [F#m] _ _ _
[E] _ _ [A] you are.
_ [E] _ _ [A]
I _ [Dm] _ _ [D#] _ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _
_ [A#] _ _ _ _ [Gm] _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ [D#] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [D#] hate you, _ [Dm] _ _ [D#] _ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _
_ [D#] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [D#] I've been [A#] wrong.
[D#] I just want to [Dm] satisfy you, though you're [Gm] not mine, I can't deny [Dm] it.
Don't [D#] you hear me talkin', baby?
[Dm] _
[C#m] _ [Cm] _ _ [F] _ [Dm] _ _ [Gm] _ _
[Dm] Love [D#] not mine, [C] can't [Dm] deny it.
Love [A#] just can't, talkin' [Dm] baby, [C#m] love can't deny [Cm] it.
[F] _ _
_ [A#] _ _ _ [Dm] _ [Gm] _ Can't deny it, [Dm] it knows [Gm] you're in it.
Talkin' [Dm] baby, [C#m] _ [Cm] _
_ [F] _ [Dm] you're the [Gm] key to all the fire.
Love not mine, can't deny it.
[Dm] Don't [A#] you hear me [Gm] talkin', [Dm] baby?
[C#] Love can't deny [Cm] it.
[F] _ [A#] _ _ _
_ _ [Dm] _ _ [Gm] _ _ _ [Dm] _
[D#] _ _ _ [Gm] _ [Dm] _ [C#m] _ [Cm] _ [F] _
_ _ [A#] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [F#m] _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [C] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ [F#m] _ _
_ _ [G#] _ [A] _ _ _ _ [A] _
And what I like to play up here is, um, for the A [E] major,
I play this voicing, which has the 9 there,
and then I [F#m] play for the D major 7,
I play this [F] voicing with the 9th there,
but that's taken care of in the right [C#m] hand, because what you do is you go,
[F#m] _ _ _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [E] _ _ [A] _
[E] and all I'm doing there is, _ _ _ _ _
[F#m] _ _ see, so there I have the 9th taken care of with the right hand.
[E] _ _ [F#m] _ _ _ [A#] And this is sort of going [E] back and forth between an E [A] major chord and an A [E] major chord.
[F#m] _ _
_ _ And [A] it works, because we have the 9th and the major 7th of the D major chord.
_ [C] So that's all good.
And then, um, you get to [E] the sort of like chorus-y part, which goes,
[A] _ _
[E] _ [B] _ [A] _ _ [C#m] and that's just a, I'd call it a C sharp minor 7 chord, _ _ _ just basic.
[A#] Go to a F sharp minor 7 [F#m] chord.
_ _ [E] _
[F#m] _ _ [A] And then it's an A major 7 chord, but what [C] Rufus does [D] with the guitar is he goes,
_ [A] he's sitting on A in the bass, [D] and he plays D [E] major, E [B] major, [A] G major, A major.
[D] _ [G#m] _ [B] _ [A] _ [C#m] _ [A] _
_ _ _ And that's just that A major 7.
[Dm] And then he goes through the whole thing again,
and there's a part then when he modulates to B major,
and it sounds like, uh, _ [A#] _ _ _ [F] _
[A#] _ _ _ [F] _ [A#] _ and that's just B major 7.
_ [Am] See, I'm playing this voicing with the [Dm] added 9.
_ [A#] And _ this is the E major 7 [C#] voicing with [A#] that added 9 without the [G] root,
but I got [A#] it in the left hand.
[Dm] _ _ [A#] _ _ _ [Dm] _ _ [A#] _
_ _ [G] And then for the [C] little turnaround, he's [Dm] going,
[C#m] _ [Cm] _ [B] _ _ _ [Dm] and you can call that a lot of things, I'm going to call this a D minor 7. _ _ _
Going down to a [C#m] C sharp minor 7. _ _
[Cm] Going down to a C minor 7.
[B] So that's just, [Dm] I'm just walking down from the D minor 7 in half steps.
[C#m] Everything, take it down half.
[Cm] _
_ And then for the last time, it's, [F] it's, uh, _ F7, but it's a tritone substitution,
[B] so what they do is they have the tritone, which is B for F,
so just play B in the left hand, [F] and your regular F major 7 chord in the right hand.
_ [G#m] _ [Dm] _ _ [A#] _ _ [Dm] _ _ [Gm] _ _
_ [Dm] _ [C#m] _ [Cm] _ [B] _ [Dm] _ _ [A#] _
