I Want You

	  		 
 F 
 The guilty undertaker sighs, 
     Am 
 The lonesome organ grinder cries, 
     Dm                            C 
 The silver saxophones say I should refuse you. 
     Bb 
 The cracked bells and washed-out horns  
 C 
 Blow into my face with scorn, 
          Dm 
 But it's not that way, 
                  C 
 I wasn't born to lose you. 
   F           Am 
 I want you, I want you, 
   Dm          C 
 I want you so bad, 
               F 
 Honey, I want you. 
  
     F 
 The drunken politician leaps 
  Am 
 Upon the street where mothers weep 
         Dm 
 And the saviors who are fast asleep, 
     C 
 They wait for you. 
       Bb 
 And I wait for them to interrupt 
 C 
 Me drinkin' from that broken cup 
     Dm 
 And ask me to 
             C 
 Open up the gate for you. 
   F           Am 
 I want you, I want you, 
   Dm          C 
 I want you so bad, 
               F 
 Honey, I want you.  
  
     Am              
 Now all my fathers, they've gone down, 
 Dm      
 True love they've been without it. 
     Am 
 But all their daughters put me down 
        Bb                 C 
 'Cause I don't think about it. 
  
 F 
 Well, I return to the Queen of Spades 
     Am 
 And talk with my chambermaid. 
 Dm 
 She knows that I'm not afraid 
    C 
 To look at her 
 Bb 
 She is good to me 
 C 
 And there's nothing she doesn't see. 
     Dm 
 She knows where I'd like to be 
 C 
 But it doesn't matter. 
   F           Am 
 I want you, I want you, 
   Dm          C 
 I want you so bad 
          F 
 Honey, I want you. 
  
 F 
 Now your dancing child with his Chinese suit, 
    Am 
 He spoke to me, I took his flute. 
 Dm 
 No, I wasn't very cute to him,  
 C 
 Was I? 
       Bb 
 But I did it, though, because he lied 
 C 
 Because he took you for a ride 
     Dm 
 And because tine was on his side 
     C 
 And because I... 
   F            Am 
 I want you,  I want you, 
   Dm          C 
 I want you so bad 
          F 
 Honey, I want you.
