Verse 1:
E7 Am
Met him on a Monday and he said he loved me so
E7 Am
Walked me to my door, before I knew it to my living room
Dm Am
I thought there was no need for worry when he took me in his arms
Dm Am
Drank some whiskey, hung his coat upon the stand
E7 E7
That's when the music started, I heard the light switch click
E7 E7
I stumbled on a lost shoe, the fever's starting
Chorus:
A E7
This man was getting hot
A E7
I got no strength to make him stop
D A F#7
I guess it's too late but I'll know next time
D E7 A E7 Am E7 Am D A F#7
To mix some water with the wine
D E7 A
To mix some water with the wine
Verse 2:
E7 Am
The sun came pouring in at five upon my face
E7 Am
I felt the taste of last night's love upon my lips
Dm Am
I wasn't sure if I had dreamt it or had not
Dm Am
But there across the pillow was the face I had forgot
E7 E7
That's when he said he loved me, could be the truth this time
E7 E7
He put his arms about me, the feverβs started
Chorus:
A E7
This man was getting hot
A E7
I got no strength to make him stop
D A F#7
I guess it's too late but I'll know next time
D E7 A E7 Am E7 Am D A F#7
To mix some water with the wine
D E7 A
To mix some water with the wine
Chorus:
A E7
This man was getting hot

I got no strength to make him stop

I guess it's too late but I'll know next time
