E       F#              A
She's a kick I couldn't miss
         B               E
Couldn't miss her little twist
       F#            A
Get it on and get it good
         B              E
Couldn't guess she ever would
        F#               A
Took up time and took up space
    B                 E
She exists outside my space
      F#             A
All I wanted was too much
      B             E
All I wanted was to touch

F# B

A
don't expect to
F#
get inside me
A
give you all I got to give
B
hit me again and again
F#
slip right to me
    A           B
and slide right through me
         F#
oh honey through me
          E    F#  B  A
away from you

E F# B A




(same chords as first verse)
She's a head I couldn't kick
She's a head to make you sick
It's a chance I never took
When she caught me with that look
It's a sin I've never seen
And she tells me how it's been
I'm in deep up to my head
give it all until I'm dead

E      F#    B
tumble down
A
stumble down
