I Want You 1

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.
