G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her skin is like velvet......
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her face cut from stone
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her eyes when she's smiling
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Will never reach home, but hear how she sings
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her touch would be tender......
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her lips would be warm
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
But when we're together
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
I'm always alone
G Am
But hear how she sings
G D Dsus2 D Am Cmaj7-C-Cmaj7-Open
Her skin is like velvet......
So I went to her home
Her place like a palace
With things you can't own
Her skin is like velvet
And hear how she sings
Hear how she sings...
Yeah, she sings
And hear how she sings
Hear how she sings.
