(intro) Am Am7M Am7 Am7M
Am Am7M
There's perfume burning in the air
Am7 Am6
Bits of beauty everywhere
BØ E7 Am7 ( Bm7(b5) E7 )
Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt
Am Am7M Am7
She comes so close you feel her then
Am6
She tells you no and no again
Bm7(b5) E7
Your lip is cut on the edge
D7 E7
Of her pleated skirt
Am Am7M Am7 Am7M
Blue Alert
Am Am7M
Visions of her drawing near
Am7 Am6
Arise, abide, and disappear
Bm7(b5) E7 Am7 ( Bm7(b5) E7 )
You try to slow it down it doesn't work
Am Am7M
It's just another night I guess
Am7 Am6
All tangled up in nakedness
Bm7(b5) E7 D7
You even touch yourself you're such a flirt
( Bm7(b5) E7 ) Am7 Am7M
Blue Alert
Dm7 E7 Am7
You know how nights like this begin
D7
The kind of knot your heart gets in
Dm7 E7 Am7 D7
Any way you turn is going to hurt
Dm7 E7
There's perfume burning in the air
Am7 D7
Bits of beauty everywhere
Dm7 E7 D7 E7
Shrapnel flying, soldier hit the dirt

Am Am7M Am7
She breaks the rules so you can see
Am6
She's wilder than you'll ever be
BØ E7 Am7 E7
You talk religion but she won't convert
Am Am7M
Her body's twenty stories high
Am7 Am6
You try to look away, you try
BØ E7 D7 E7
But all you want to do is get there first
Am Am7M
