[A] Oh,
[G#m] unexpected.
[Dm] Multidimensional, am I losing it?
[C#m] Unexpected [D#] sound.
[Cm] The
[E] [Dm] sweetest thing I've ever known
[C#m] [Cm] Was like the kiss on the collarbone
[C#m] [Dm] The soft caress of happiness
[C#m] [Cm] The way you wore your style of dress
[C#m] [Dm] I wish I didn't get so weak
[C#m] [Cm] Oh, baby, just to hear you speak
[C#m] [Dm] Makes me argue just to see
[C#m] [Cm] How much you're in love with me
See, [Gm] like a queen, a [F] queen [Cm] upon her throne
It [Em] [Dm] was the sweet, sweet, sweetest [C#m] thing [Cm] I've known
[C#] It [Dm] was the sweet, sweet, [C#] sweetest [Cm] thing I've known
[C#m] [Dm] I get mad when you walk away
[C#m] [Cm] So I tell you leave when I may [E] stay
[Dm] Warm as the sun, dim and [C#m] black
[Cm] Fingertips so small in my [C#m] back
[F] More [Dm] valuable than [E] all [Cm] I own
[C#m] [Dm] Like your precious, precious, precious, [C] precious, [Cm] precious
Baby dark skin tone

I [B] can't explain [F#m] it
But [Gm] [A#] [Gm] [A#]
[Gm] baby it's in vain, oh
[Dm] Speaking on my mother's phone
[C#m] [Cm] It's [D#] such a waste, we ain't [Cm] [C#m] outgrown
[Dm] You ain't known
Sweet prince of the ghetto
[C#m] Sweet church [Cm] together
Your kiss tastes like old bread tone
[C#m] [Dm] Intoxicated, intoxicated
Oh, [C#m] [Cm] intoxicated, intoxicated
[C#m] How [Dm] sad, how sad
[C#m] That all [Cm] things come to an end
But [A#] then again
