D                                        G  
Lilac blowing through the warm summer air 
D                                           C 
Hint of your perfume The smell of your hair 
D                                    G 
Sun is setting and the crows all cry 
D                                    C 
Electrical storm forming in the sky 
D                                         G 
Got a hurt inside that I just gotta heal 
D                                C 
All I can do is feel, feel, feel 
D                                  G 
Day is dying and the night is born 
D                                  C 
Baby don't leave me so lovelorn 

  G      A         Bm          E 
A hungry dog howls through the trees 
   G      A           Bm    E 
It echoes long on the lilac breeze 
  G         A       Bm      E 
A blackbird sings a song so sad 
G       A       Bm  Bm 
Girl, I want it bad 
G       A       Bm 
Girl, I want it bad 

D                                     G  
Birds do it, bees do it, I wanna do it 
D                                                C 
The only thing we need to do, Is get down to it 
D                                                  G  
Please hear my plea, Know it comes from the heart 
D                                         C 
Baby, you and me got something to start

Lilac blowing in the warm summer breeze 
D                                             C 
Floating so soft with the cries in the trees 
D                                   G 
Sun is setting and the day is dead 
D                                                C 
How can I get it through your pretty little head

A hungry dog howls through the trees
