Intro::
A   Am7     G/B     D/F#

Verse 1:
A                  Am7
A prima donna, slipped into her leather
G/B
But she was restless
D/F#
She knew it in her heart of hearts
A           Am7
She said: "Tonight you'd better pull yourself together
G/B                       D/F#
Because tonight I'm gonna pull myself apart!"
F#m
Out on the streets
             E
Everyone is searchin' for a thrill
F#m
But she's the only one that's out there
        E
Really dressed to kill
    A           E7       A     E7        A
And she said: "Listen to me, it's not a tragedy
     E7                 A
This time I'm gettin' through
     E7                    A
And now there's something you can do for me!

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

Verse 2:
A                  Am7
TV angel with her eyes full of smoke
 G/B                         D/F#
Gazin' at the hero, he's so mucho macho
A                         Am7
He shrugs, he says: "This must be some kind of joke"
G/B
As she pulls on his cigarette
     D/F#
And loves him to distraction
      F#m                      E
But she cries, "I don't wanna feel like a machine
     F#m                          E            A
I'm not the only one who wants to feel the in-between
       E7  A                  E7           A
That's why I'm deep into this state of fascination
   E7            A        E7          A
That's why I've lost the art of conversation

Refrain 2::
F#m     E                      D
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
F#m          E                       D
If you wanna see what's really in my soul
F#m               E                                D
But you'd better keep your eye on where my pretty face is
F#m          E                               D
'Cos in the heat of the moment I just lose control
F#m                 E              E6      A
In the heat of the moment, I just lose control!"

Verse 3:
A                         Am7
Eyes out of focus, the sharpening of blades
G/B               D/F#
The sad tension, reek of patchouli
A                   Am7
Even the Jokers are dealin' in Spades
G/B                       D/F#
It's one dimension, it's all so passé
F#m
Just then a voice said:
             E
"Honey, it's too late to change your mind"
F#m
Her face tightened
        E                 E6    E7
I could see she'd found a new design
    A           E7       A    E7            A
And she said: "Listen to me, it's just a fantasy
      E7              A
This time I'm comin' through
    E7                            A
And now there's something you can do for me...

Refrain 3::
F#m     E                       D
And oh, oh, take me to the wild places
F#m        E                          D
And let me show you what the night is for
F#m            E                                 D
"I don't wanna dream, I wanna set the wheels in motion
F#m       E                              D
I wanna see your eyes across a dancin' floor
F#m  E                          D
'Ooh lovers set the wheels in (3x):
F#m                  E           E6       A
In the heat of the moment I just lose control."
