Drunk On Desire

William Clark Green


Tom: C

Am


[Verse 1]
                       C
If my life could be forgiven
                   Am
Then I'd be an open book
                      C
And I feel your heart slowly
                          Am
With all the hands that I shook


[Chorus 1]
                   F
Baby, when you get wild
                   Am
And I burn in your fire
                           C         G
I'll give you all that you wanted
                     Am
When i'm drunk on desire


[Verse 2]
                C
I left Oklahoma City
                     Am
About a quarter past 9:00
                   C
I ended up in Tucumcari
                Am
And I made good time


[Chorus 2]
                   F
Baby, when you get lonesome
                      Am
I’ll be your midnight choir
                  C        G
Any song that you wanted
                  Am
When I'm drunk on desire


[Verse 3]
                   C
In the morning I'm worthless
                   Am
And after 2:00 I'm saved
                        C
I drink the bottle with purpose
                 Am
Then I lay in my grave


[Chorus 3]
         F
Oh, dear Diana
                Am
For your love I retire
                            C     G
But, I'll be dreamin' about you
                    Am
When I'm drunk on desire
                            C     G
But, I'll be dreamin' about you
                    C
When I'm drunk on desire
