Intro::
A augmentedA  Am7Am7   G/BG/B   D/F#D/F#

Verse 1:
A augmentedA         Am7Am7
A augmentedA prima donna, slipped into her leather
G/BG/B
But she was restless
D/F#D/F#
She knew it in her heart of hearts
A augmentedA      Am7Am7
She said: "Tonight you'd better pull yourself together
G/BG/B            D/F#D/F#
Because tonight I'm gonna pull myself apart!"
F# minorF#m
Out on the streets
       E MajorE
Everyone is searchin' for a thrill
F# minorF#m
But she's the only one that's out there
    E MajorE
Really dressed to kill
  A augmentedA      E7E7    A augmentedA   E7E7    A augmentedA
And she said: "Listen to me, it's not a tragedy
   E7E7         A augmentedA
This time I'm gettin' through
   E7E7          A augmentedA
And now there's something you can do for me!

Refrain 1::
F# minorF#m   E MajorE            D MajorD
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
F# minorF#m    E MajorE             D MajorD
And let me show you what the night is for
F# minorF#m     E MajorE
'Cos I don't wanna dream
              D MajorD
I wanna set the wheels in motion
F# minorF#m      E MajorE             BB
I don't wanna see your eyes across a dancin' floor"

Verse 2:
A augmentedA         Am7Am7
TV angel with her eyes full of smoke
 G/BG/B             D/F#D/F#
Gazin' at the hero, he's so mucho macho
A augmentedA             Am7Am7
He shrugs, he says: "This must be some kind of joke"
G/BG/B
As she pulls on his cigarette
   D/F#D/F#
And loves him to distraction
   F# minorF#m           E MajorE
But she cries, "I don't wanna feel like a machine
   F# minorF#m             E MajorE      A augmentedA
I'm not the only one who wants to feel the in-between
    E7E7 A augmentedA         E7E7      A augmentedA
That's why I'm deep into this state of fascination
  E7E7      A augmentedA    E7E7     A augmentedA
That's why I've lost the art of conversation

Refrain 2::
F# minorF#m   E MajorE           D MajorD
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
F# minorF#m     E MajorE            D MajorD
If you wanna see what's really in my soul
F# minorF#m        E MajorE                D MajorD
But you'd better keep your eye on where my pretty face is
F# minorF#m     E MajorE                D MajorD
'Cos in the heat of the moment I just lose control
F# minorF#m         E MajorE       E6E6   A augmentedA
In the heat of the moment, I just lose control!"

Verse 3:
A augmentedA             Am7Am7
Eyes out of focus, the sharpening of blades
G/BG/B        D/F#D/F#
The sad tension, reek of patchouli
A augmentedA          Am7Am7
Even the Jokers are dealin' in Spades
G/BG/B            D/F#D/F#
It's one dimension, it's all so passé
F# minorF#m
Just then a voice said:
       E MajorE
"Honey, it's too late to change your mind"
F# minorF#m
Her face tightened
    E MajorE         E6E6  E7E7
I could see she'd found a new design
  A augmentedA      E7E7    A augmentedA  E7E7      A augmentedA
And she said: "Listen to me, it's just a fantasy
   E7E7       A augmentedA
This time I'm comin' through
  E7E7              A augmentedA
And now there's something you can do for me...

Refrain 3::

F# minorF#m    E MajorE             D MajorD
And let me show you what the night is for
F# minorF#m      E MajorE                 D MajorD
"I don't wanna dream, I wanna set the wheels in motion
F# minorF#m    E MajorE               D MajorD
I wanna see your eyes across a dancin' floor
F# minorF#m E MajorE             D MajorD
'Ooh lovers set the wheels in (3x):
F# minorF#m         E MajorE      E6E6    A augmentedA
In the heat of the moment I just lose control."
