PRISONER OF LOVE

[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Riff 1]
[Rhy. Fig 2]
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Riff 2]
[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Riff 3]
[Rhy. Fig 4]
If I can survive, and if you can't deny it
Don't give me love, no, don't even try it
Just give me your trust, and I'll tell you no lies
This is the truth, and I don't know why
Can't you hear your heart is beatin' (Don't you hear it beatin')
Don't you feel that sweet sweet feelin' (Can't you feel that feelin')
Anytime you need some lovin'
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Riff 4]
Yeah, I know, I'm a prisoner of love, and I can't break these chains
[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Riff 4]
Yeah, yes I know, but here comes that feelin' again
[Rhy. Fig 4 w/ Riff 5]
And if you can't believe all your alibis, I can tell by that look in your eyes
When we make love, you play hard to bet, you bet, what you give is what you get
Anytime I see you goin' (Anytime I see you gone)
Everytime the feelin's growin' (This feelin's growin')
Anytime I need your lovin'
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Riff 4]
Yeah, I know, I'm a prisoner of love, and I can't break these chains
[Rhy. Fig 3 w/ Riff 4]
Yeah, yes I know, but here comes that feelin' again
[Rhy. Fig 5]
That feelinĄ again
[Solo]
[Rhy. Fig 6 w/ Riff 6]
[Rhy. Fig 7 w/ Riff 7]
I know it's much too late, but I can't help this feelin', no I can't look away
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Riff 8]
[Rhy. Fig 2]
[Rhy. Fig 1 w/ Outro solo]
Yeah, I know, I'm a prisoner of love, and I can't break these chains
[Rhy. Fig 3]
Yeah, yes I know, but here comes that feelin' again
