            Em        Em             Em         Em
Go on and close your eyes, (go on) imagine me there

            A              *A slide C

[verse]:

G
you never had to wait for nothing in your life

         Bm
i guess wanting you must have been a steel blue knife

          G
and when night after night the scent of passion would linger

    Bm
you had to have the jewels wrapped around your finger

              C                             D
now you keep running down the road in your midnight state of mind

    C                    D
curiosity kills  if you can't read the signs


[chorus]

 G
dancing with the ?wall made you bitter sweet
[ Tab from: http://www.guitaretab.com/e/etheridge-melissa/6151.html ]
            Bm
there ain't much you can do when they just lay it at your feet

               G
but could you tell by the song I wanted to be the one

         Bm
did you listen again when the damage was done

          C                        D
 now the paint's still wet in your do-it-by-number dream

                C                             D
were you gonna tell me how it felt, will you tell me what it means

[chorus]


[bridge]:

C        D           Em
was it want with no desire

C        D           Em
was it smoke with no fire

       C
did I say it doesn't rip me apart, I lied

     D
I'm sorry dear my ha-a-a-a-a-ands are ...
